  • Polymer compound for biomedical use and biochip substrate using such a polymer compound
    Patent number: 8293190
    Abstract: A biochip substrate capable of realizing the high detection accuracy by restricting a nonspecific adsorption or bonding of a substance to be detected, when used for a detection or analysis of protein, nucleic acids and the like. The biochip substrate is for fixing a biologically active substance on a surface of a solid substrate, and characterized in that it has a layer comprising a polymer compound obtained by copolymerizing an ethylenically unsaturated polymerizable monomer having an alkylene glycol residue, an ethylenically unsaturated polymerizable monomer having a functional group for fixing a biologically active substance and an ethylenically unsaturated polymerizable monomer having a cross-linkable functional group, on the surface of the substrate.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 29, 2011
    Date of Patent: October 23, 2012
    Assignees: Sumitomo Bakelite Company, Ltd., Somalogic, Inc.
