  • Publication number: 20100029503
    Abstract: This invention is directed to an analysis chip comprising a substrate having a surface on which a selective binding substance is immobilized; a cover member adhered to the substrate; and particles movably contained or injected in a void between the substrate and the cover member; wherein the surfaces of the particles are coated with a surfactant. By this invention, generation of bubbles which inhibit the selective reaction between the test substance and the immobilized selective binding substance is suppressed, thereby reducing the deviation of data, suppressing the lowering of sensitivity, and promoting the reproducibility of the measurement.

  • Patent number: 4656144
    Abstract: Immunochemicals having an amino group are immobilized by covalent bonding on fine particles having an average diameter of 0.03 to 10 .mu.m, the fine particles comprising a polymer having the repeating unit of glycidyl acrylate or glycidyl methacrylate and the fine particles not having on the surface thereof a hydrophobic component other than the above unit, whereby there are obtained immunoparticles effective as a diagnostic reagent for immunological tests for detecting or measuring a component in human or animal body fluids or for labeling cells.

  • Patent number: 4418152
    Abstract: A diagnostic reagent for immunological tests for detecting or measuring a component in human or animal body fluids or for labeling cells, including immunochemicals immobilized on a particulate carrier characterized in that fine particles having an average diameter in the range of about 0.03 to about 10 .mu.m and comprising a cross-linked polymer having a repeating unit represented by the general formula ##STR1## wherein R stands for hydrogen or a methyl group, are used as the particulate carrier.
