HIGH MOLECULAR COMPOUND FOR MEDICAL MATERIAL AND BIOCHIP SUBSTRATE USING SUCH HIGH MOLECULAR COMPOUND

摘要

Disclosed is a high molecular compound for medical use which is excellent in immobilization ability for physiologically active substances. This high molecular compound has adequate chemical/physical stability and thus hardly dissolves or deteriorates during a cleaning step. Furthermore, this high molecular compound can be suitably coated over the surface of a plastic base. Specifically disclosed is a high molecular compound for medical use which is a polymer containing at least a repeating unit derived from an ethylenically unsaturated polymerizable monomer (a) having a functional group for immobilizing a physiologically active substance. This high molecular compound for medical use is characterized by having a reactive functional group at at least one end of the polymer. Also specifically disclosed is a biochip substrate wherein a layer containing such a high molecular compound is formed on a substrate surface.
