摘要 |
The present invention relates to a system for carrying out parallel bioassays. Micro-fabricated labels (7) are made to each carry a biochemical test, many different labels are mixed together with an analyte sample (8). A device that reads the individual labels isolates the results of the individual tests. The microfabricated labels have a surface layer of anodised metal and are produced by anodising, lithographic patterning and etching steps. Aluminum is the preferred metal. |
