  • Methods of immobilizing ligands on solid supports and apparatus and methods of use therefor
    Publication number: 20030143570
    Abstract: 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 functional group, and forming a covalent bond between the two groups, thereby immobilizing the nucleic acid to the solid support. Kits containing the solid supports and method of utilizing the solid supports are also provided.
    Type: Application
    Filed: August 1, 2002
    Publication date: July 31, 2003
    Applicant: Matrix Technologies Corporation
    Inventors: Ezra S. Abrams, Tianhong Zhang, Slawomir Mielewczyk, Brian C. Patterson
