Microarrays and microspheres comprising oligosaccharides, complex carbohydrates or glycoproteins

摘要

One aspect of the present invention relates to an array, comprising a plurality of spots on a solid support, wherein each spot independently comprises a substrate attached to said solid support, wherein each substrate attached to said solid support is independently a carbohydrate-containing molecule. A second aspect of the present invention relates to a method of preparing such an array of carbohydrate-containing molecules. A third aspect of the present invention relates to a method to detect the interaction of a carbohydrate with a binding molecule.
