摘要:
When probe biomolecules are immobilized on a substrate surface, a surfactant (phase transfer catalyst) is added for reaction, whereby immobilization efficiency of the probe biomolecules and coating uniformity thereof are improved. Consequently, it is possible to dramatically improve quantitativity and reproducibility of the biosensor element.

In capillary bead arrays, the quality of each of a number of probe beads made by the batch process is non-destructively inspected. Only good probe beads, which are beads having a predetermined quantity of probes of a desired type immobilized on the surface thereof, are selected to be arranged in capillaries, whereby homogeneous and high-quality capillary bead arrays alone can be provided to users. Thus, the reproducibility of biochemical experiments involving capillary bead arrays is significantly increased. Probe beads 401 made by the batch process are one- or two-dimensionally arranged on the bottom surface of a container 402. The probe beads 401 are irradiated with excitation light 403, and the quality of the probe beads 401 arranged on the bottom surface of the container 402 is inspected by spectral analysis. Based on the quality inspection, probe beads judged as defective items are removed from all the probe beads 401, thereby leaving only probe beads judged as good items. The remaining good probe beads alone in the container 402 are provided in capillary bead arrays.
摘要:
When a biomolecule and a biochemical reactant are detected, a white interference method is used to conduct a noncontact and nondestructive detection, and further to conduct efficient and accurate detection. This method is applied to a biosensor element, whereby non-labeled and noncontact quality control can be achieved.
摘要:
An apparatus and a method for arraying beads that allow a bead array having been difficult in mass production to be manufactured easily and accurately are provided. Beads are once arrayed in a separate container using an inclined bead array apparatus while controlling the number of beads to be inserted simply by the use of a bead control rod. When the whole arraying is completed, the arrayed beads are transferred onto a plate for use in an actual reaction.
