Abstract: The invention relates to novel silane compounds corresponding to the following formula (I): A-E-X??(I) in which: X represents a silylated group which makes possible the covalent attachment of the silane compound to the hydroxyl or hydride functional groups of a support; E represents an organic spacer group; A represents a group capable of releasing an —OH functional group by acid hydrolysis, the said —OH functional group, after the said hydrolysis, being covalently bonded to E. Use of these silane compounds for functionalizing solid supports and for immobilizing biological molecules on these supports.

Abstract: A compound having formula (I): X—E—Si?Cl3??(I) wherein: X represents an isocyanate function; E represents a straight, branched or cyclic alkyl chain comprising from 4 to 30 carbon atoms, and optionally contains a bridge function of —O—, —S—, —NH— or aryl; and X and SiCl3 are separated by a chain of at least 4 carbon atoms.

Abstract: Molecule responding to formula X-E-SiCl3 wherein: X represents an isocyanate function —N?C?O and B represents an alkyl chain, its use for preparing a device comprising a mineral support (MS) and bound thereto at Self Assembled Monolayer (SAM) of molecules, the Self Assembled Monolayer grafted substrate thus obtained and its use in assays for detection of a target molecule and/or screening of interaction with other molecules.

Abstract: Provided is a method for the production of a mineral substrate with a surface modified by organic groups. The method comprises placing the surface of a mineral substrate with silanol functional groups in contact with a solution of an organotrihydrosilane in an organic solvent at a temperature of less than 30° C. The mineral substrate with silanol functions can comprise silica particles, a sheet of glass, quartz or mica as well as silicon of the wafer type covered by a layer of silica deposited by an appropriate preliminary treatment.
