Abstract
The present invention relates to functionalized porous carriers which comprise a material having at least one porous surface, nanoparticles having molecule-specific recognition sites being present in the pores of the material surface, and to a process for producing functionalized porous carriers. The invention further relates to functional elements produced using the functionalized carriers, such as microtiter plates, microarrays and flow devices, and also to uses of the functionalized carriers and functional elements.
Claims102
A functionalized porous carrier comprising a material having a first surface arranged on an upper side of the material and a second surface arranged on a lower side of the material, at least one said surface being planar and having pores and a plurality of nanoparticles being arranged in each of the pores of at least one region of the porous surface, and the nanoparticles having molecule-specific recognition sites.
