METHODS OF IMMOBILIZING LIGANDS ON SOLID SUPPORTS AND APPARATUS AND METHODS OF USE THEREFOR

A method is provided for immobilizing a ligand, e.g., a nucleic acid, on a solid support. The method includes providing a solid support containing an immobilized latent thiol group, activating the thiol group, contacting the activated thiol group with a nucleic acid comprising an acrylamide function...

Zusammenfassung:A method is provided for immobilizing a ligand, e.g., a nucleic acid, on a solid support. The method includes providing a solid support containing an immobilized latent thiol group, activating the thiol group, contacting the activated thiol group with a nucleic acid comprising an acrylamide functiona l group, and forming a covalent bond between the two groups, thereby immobilizing the nucleic acid to the solid support. Kits containing the soli d supports and method of utilizing the solid supports are also provided.
