| 20100113301 | METHOD FOR THE IDENTIFICATION AND/OR THE QUANTIFICATION OF A TARGET COMPOUND OBTAINED FROM A BIOLOGICAL SAMPLE UPON CHIPS - The present invention is related to a method for the identification and/or the quantification of a target compound obtained from a sample, preferably a biological sample, comprising the steps of putting into contact the target compound with a capture molecule in order in order to allow a specific binding between said target compound with a capture molecule, said capture molecule being fixed upon a surface of a solid support according to an array comprising a density of at least 20 discrete regions per cm | 05-06-2010 |
| 20090156415 | REAL-TIME PCR OF TARGETS ON A MICRO-ARRAY - The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for monitoring on a micro-array a PCR amplification of a nucleotide molecule being present in a solution. The method includes the steps of: providing a support having fixed upon its surface a microarray having at least a capture molecule being immobilized in specifically localized areas of the support and a reaction chamber; introducing a solution containing the nucleotide molecule into the reaction chamber and reagents for nucleotide molecule amplification and labelling; submitting the solution to at least 2 thermal cycles having at least 2 and preferably 3 different temperature steps in order to obtain labelled target nucleotide molecule by PCR amplification; performing at least a measurement of the labelled target nucleotide molecule in at least one thermal cycle by incubating the labelled target nucleotide molecule under conditions allowing a specific binding between the target nucleotide molecule and its corresponding capture molecule and measuring the light emission from the bound labelled target nucleotide molecule in response to excitation light with the solution being present in the chamber and containing the labelled target nucleotide molecule. The surface of emission for a localized area is between about 0.1 μm | 06-18-2009 |
