Abstract
A method of fabricating deposits of non-volatile substances, including biomacromolecules, in the form of spots and filing on a substrate surface by electrospray, where the deposits are used to determine the interaction of the deposited non-volatile substances to other substances. Also included in this method is the mass fabrication on a single chip of an array of single and multicomponent microsamples.
Claims6
A dry deposit of a non-volatile biologically functional and/or biologically active substance formed on a substrate, wherein said dry deposit retains biological function and/or activity, has a thickness ranging down to a monolayer, has a homogeneity of thickness not larger than ±10% and contains molecule clusters with a size between 5 nm and 50 nm.
