DEVICE FOR CONTACT MOLECULAR SAMPLING

摘要

The invention concerns a device (6) for sampling molecules of biological interest. Said device (6) comprises capturing zones (10) whereof the developed surface is much greater than the surface such that the contact sampling enables a sufficient amount of molecules to be obtained to achieve a reliable analysis, while being of dimensions such that the device (6) is neither invasive nor aggressive. In particular the device comprises stepped capture zones (10) localized on a support (12) made according to microtechnology techniques; the capture zones (10) can advantageously be functionalized.
