Abstract
The present invention relates to the use of a substrate for enhancing the chemiluminescence of one or more luminophores produced in a chemiluminescence reaction, wherein the substrate comprises a solid polymeric carrier with a plurality of depressions separated from one another and that the solid carrier is at least partially coated with a metal.
Claims20
A method for enhancing the chemiluminescence of one or more luminophores produced in a chemiluminescence reaction, comprising:
- providing a substrate that comprises a solid polymeric carrier with a plurality of depressions separated from one another, wherein the solid polymeric carrier is at least partially coated with at least one metal.
(canceled)
A method for determining or quantifying at least one analyte in an aqueous sample, comprising:
- a) contacting the aqueous sample with a substrate that comprises a solid polymeric carrier with a plurality of depressions separated from one another, wherein the solid polymeric carrier is at least partially coated with at least one metal;
- the substrate further comprising an analyte-binding molecule directly or indirectly bound to the substrate,
- b) adding at least one additional analyte-binding molecule to which at least one enzyme is directly or indirectly bound that produces one or more luminophores from one or more precursors in a chemiluminescence reaction, and
- c) measuring the light emission resulting from the chemiluminescence reaction.
