A method is provided to enable high-density absorption when immobilizing
nucleic acid probes onto a solid support surface by suppressing
electrostatic repulsion among the nucleic acids. A nucleic acid
immobilization method to immobilize a nucleic acid onto a solid support,
includes: preparing a solution containing a probe molecule which includes
a nucleic acid, a spacer molecule, and at least one kind of a divalent
cation; and contacting the solution with the solid support for
incubation.
