A METHOD FOR REPRODUCING MOLECULAR ARRAYS

摘要

A method for producing an array of molecules immobilised on a substrate, comprises the steps of: forming a hybrid array from an array of first molecules (3) immobilised on a first substrate (1) and second molecules (4), i.e. the molecules to be immobilised, thereby defining a spatial array of th e second molecules; bringing into close proximity the first substrate (1) and a second substrate (6), wherein the second substrate (6) and the second molecules (4) can be mutually linked; by linking them, causing the second molecules (4) to be printed onto the second substrate (6) while retaining th e spatial array; and separating the respective substrates.
