摘要:
The invention relates to a method which can be used to control the positioning of a biological element on an area of a support directly and in real time, whereby the biological element is marked with a light-emitting tracer and the area of the support on which it is to be positioned is located in a layer of material that can trap the light. The inventive method comprises the following steps consisting in: a) allowing the biological element to be positioned on the area of the support; b) measuring the intensity of the light trapped in the aforementioned layer; and c) determining the position of the biological element by comparing the intensity value thus measured to at least one reference value. According to the invention, steps a), b) and c) can be performed successively or simultaneously. The invention also relates to a device which enables said method to be used in order to position one or more biological elements on one or more areas of a support.

The invention relates to a biochip support. The inventive support consists of a substrate bearing at least one porous layer of material on a first face, whereby the layer is intended to ensure the fixing of biological molecules on and inside said layer. The support is characterised in that the layer is a thin optical layer of material prepared by sol-gel process, having a refractive index which is less than that of the substrate. The invention also relates to a method of grafting biological molecules to the surface of, and inside the thin layer of material prepared by sol-gel process on the first face of the biochip support. The aforementioned method comprises the following steps: preparation of a sol which is intended to provide the sol-gel material; incorporation of bio-molecules in the material during the preparation thereof; grafting of bio-molecules in the material during the preparation thereof; deposition of a thin layer of said sol on the first face of the substrate; and production of the thin layer of sol-gel material from the thin layer of sol. Moreover, one particular grafting method also comprises a step involving the structuring of the thin layer of sol-gel material in order to produce a network of pits and bumps over all or part of the biochip support.
