METHOD FOR ANALYSING MACROMOLECULES

摘要

The invention relates to a method for analysing macromolecules with the aid of a microarray on which a plurality of first, initially partially different macromolecules are disposed in a known arrangement. The microarray is arranged on the surface of a solid body on which an area is defined, said area having wetting properties which are different from those of the surrounding solid body surface in such a way that a liquid with a plurality of second macromolecules can preferably reside thereon; the liquid with the second macromolecules is disposed on the solid body surface and at least partially removed once more therefrom and the second macromolecules remaining from the removal process are detected in local resolution mode in order to determine on the basis of the situation thereof which of the first macromolecules have bonded with the second macromolecules. The invention also relates to a method wherein a surface wave is sent to the liquid in order to distribute and/or mix said liquid on a microarray. The invention further relates to a device for carrying out the inventive methods and to advantageous uses thereof.
