Abstract: A molecular assembly having a structural formation of amphiphilic molecules is disclosed where the amphiphilic molecules are selected from a group containing amphiphilic molecules which a) have a hydrophobic moiety and a hydrophilic moiety b) are soluble in a polar aprotic solvent and form self-organizing layer structures in the absence of the polar aprotic solvent, and c) orient molecularly in formed layer structures at an interfacial layer, or in an aqueous environment. The amphiphilic molecules in the formed layer structure are in contact with an aqueous environment. A method for coating a solid surface with a molecular assembly is also disclosed, wherein the amphiphilic molecules are dissolved in a polar aprotic solvent, and resulting solution is applied to a solid surface by spin coating.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method, to a surface, to a particle, and to a kit for the detection of low molecular weight analytes such as crop protection agents in samples. In particular, the invention relates to a method for the detection of glyphosate through protein-functionalised surfaces and functionalised particles by means of reflection interference contrast microscopy (RICM).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for producing a coated cell culture carrier, wherein a solution comprising a polyurethane urea is applied to a cell carrier and dried. The polyurethane urea is produced beforehand by converting at least one polycarbonate polyol component, at least one polyisocyanate component, and at least one diamino component. The invention further relates to a cell culture carrier obtained according to the method and the use thereof for in-vitro cultivation of stem cells, particularly for cultivating mesenchymal stem cells.

Abstract: The invention relates to a modified multi-well plate for biochemical analyses and cell culture experiments, which can be obtained through a method for functionalization. The method comprises the following process steps: a) Treatment of the multi-well plate by means of an ammonia low-pressure plasma, so that reactive amino groups are formed on the plate surface; b) Application of an aqueous or alcoholic solution of a maleic anhydride copolymer; c) Drying the solution of the maleic anhydride copolymer on the surface; d) Heat treatment for the covalent bonding of the maleic anhydride copolymer to the multi-well plate; e) Rinsing with aqueous solution to eliminate unbound and water-soluble maleic anhydride copolymer f) Heat treatment to reestablish the reactivity of the anhydride groups on the maleic anhydride copolymer.
