USE OF FLUIORINATED NONIONIC SURFACTANTS FOR REDUCING NONSPECIFIC BINDING OF MOLECULES TO A SURFACE

摘要

The present invention provides materials, methods, and kits for reducing nonspecific binding of molecules to a surface, particularly in a solid phase material, and more specifically a solid phase material that includes a hydrophobic portion, by contacting the solid phase material with a fluorinated nonionic surfactant comprising two or more fluorinated hydrophobic segments and one or more hydrophilic segments
