HYDROGEL MICROARRAY WITH EMBEDDED METAL NANOPARTICLES

摘要

A method of creating a metal nanoparticle hydrogel biological array comprises placing a plurality of metal nanoparticles in each of a plurality of wells on a substrate, and placing a biomolecular probe material into the plurality of wells. Hydrogel precursors are placed in each of the plurality of wells; and are polymerized to form hydrogel such that the metal nanoparticles are embedded in the hydrogel.
