摘要:
An object of the present invention relates to detecting a target substance with high contrast. The invention relates to analysis of a target substance using a light-transmitting substrate and a metal for inducing plasmon resonance, and further using a low refractive index layer with an opening portion, which forms an interface with the substrate, and which has a lower refractive index than the substrate. Light emitted from a substrate side is totally reflected at the interface to irradiate the metal arranged in the opening portion with evanescent light. Light generated from the target substance by plasmon resonance of the evanescent light is detected. According to the invention, the radiation of evanescent light to a material other than the target substance can be reduced, and thereby light emission from the martial other than the target substance, e.g., a molecule floating around the target substance, can be reduced.

This invention provides a biomolecule modifying substrate comprising biomolecules selectively fixed to given regions thereon. The biomolecule modifying substrate comprises: a substrate at least comprising a first surface and a second surface; a first linker molecule comprising a hydrocarbon chain and a functional group capable of selectively binding to the first surface at one end of the hydrocarbon chain, which is bound to the first surface via such functional group; a second linker molecule comprising a reactive group capable of binding to the hydrocarbon chain of the first linker molecule, which is bound to the first linker molecule via a bond between the reactive group and the hydrocarbon chain; and a biomolecule bound thereto via the second linker molecule.

The present invention relates to a nucleic acid analysis device for analysis of nucleic acid in a sample through fluorometry, in which a localized surface plasmon by light irradiation, and in which a nucleic acid probe or a nucleic acid synthase for the analysis of the nucleic acid in the sample is disposed in a region of generation of the surface plasmon. The present invention allows the fluorescence intensifying effect of the surface plasmon to be produced efficiently and also enables the immobilization of a DNA probe or the nucleic acid synthase in a region on which the fluorescence intensifying effect is exerted, thus making it possible to carry out a measurement on the base elongation reaction without having to remove the unreacted substrate with the fluorescent molecule.

Sample nucleic acids are prevented from removing from a sample-immobilizing layer during a sequencing reaction. A reaction device for nucleic acid analysis is provided that enables high throughput analysis by increasing the number of nucleic acid samples that can be analyzed. The reaction device for nucleic acid analysis comprises a substrate, a sample-immobilizing layer on the substrate, nucleic acid samples or carriers having nucleic acid samples on their surfaces, which are immobilized on the sample-immobilizing layer, and a blocking layer that covers areas other than areas where the nucleic acid samples or the carriers are bound to the sample-immobilizing layer, wherein the immobilizing layer is formed of an inorganic oxide.
摘要:
An object of the present invention relates to distinguishing, from a fluorophore of an unreacted substrate, a single fluorophore attached to a nucleotide that is incorporated into a probe by a nucleic acid synthesis. The present invention relates to a nucleic acid analyzing device that analyzes a nucleic acid in sample by fluorescence, wherein a localized surface plasmon is generated by illumination, and a probe for analyzing the nucleic acid in the sample is on the site where the surface plasmon is generated. According to the present invention, since it is possible to efficiently produce fluorescence intensifying effects due to the surface plasmon and to immobilize the probe to a region within the reach of the fluorescence intensifying effects, it becomes possible to measure a nucleic acid synthesis without removing unreacted nucleotide to which fluorophores are attached.
