Cellular material detection probes

Abstract

There is provided compositions for the detection of target cellular material, the composition comprising: a chemically modified substrate; at least one binding moiety, wherein the binding moiety comprises a glycan; and at least one linker covalently linked to the substrate and the binding moiety by a first and second bond. There is also provided methods of preparation of such compositions and methods for detection of target cellular material, such as for detection of pathogenic microorganisms.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
