The present invention relates to a substrate for attachment of biomolecules.
The substrate is coated with a multiamino organosilane. If desired, the substrate
can be further modified prior to coating with a multiamino organosilane. Optional
surface modifications include coating the substrate with SiO2 or leaching
with acid to form a SiO2 rich layer. DNA, nucleic acids, or any bimolecules
can be attached to the coated substrates of the invention. Although a variety of
substrates are contemplated, the preferred substrate is a low self-fluorescent glass.
