Abstract

La présente invention concerne des particules de billes biologiques qui peuvent détecter indépendamment un objet à détecter par l'intermédiaire d'une sonde et avec lesquelles la quantité de la sonde immobilisée est augmentée. Les particules de billes biologiques sont obtenues en immobilisant, par liaison covalente, au moins un polymère, choisi dans le groupe constitué par un polymère contenant un groupe amino, un polymère contenant un groupe carboxyle, un polymère contenant un groupe aldéhyde et un polymère contenant un groupe époxy, sur les surfaces des particules dont au moins les surfaces sont composées de carbone. Dans ces billes biologiques, une substance biologique est liée à un groupe amino des particules de billes biologiques par une liaison covalente ou une liaison non covalente. Les particules de billes biologiques peuvent être produites par une combinaison de : revêtement de la surface de la particule avec un polymère ; et irradiation de la surface de la particule avec du plasma ou de la lumière.
