A magnetic particle and fabrication method thereof. The magnetic particle comprises a polymer core, a magnetic material layer covering the polymer core, and a silicon containing layer covering the magnetic material layer. In addition, the magnetic particle may further comprise a coupling agent on the silicon containing layer, and an active molecule connected to the coupling agent. The magnetic particles provide controllable size, uniform diameter distribution, high magnetization, improved storage stability, and modified surface for targeting biomolecules for biomaterial separation and environmental analysis.

A peptide compound for measuring sulfur compound and ammonia and measurement method and device using the compound. The method comprises contacting an analyte with a sensory device coated with the peptide compound to produce a signal, processing the signal to produce a result, and comparing the result with a database to define the presence of the sulfur compound and ammonia in the analyte.

Peptide compound for measuring sulfur compound and ammonia

Method and device for measuring sulfur compound and/or ammonia based on a sensory unit coated with at least one novel peptide

The invention discloses an on-spot hydrophilic enhanced slide/microarray. The preparation method relates to a hydrophobic copolymer prepared by blending, grafting or co-polymerization of a hydrophobic material and a compound bearing functional groups such as anhydride, imide, cyclic amide, and cyclic ester, and application of the hydrophobic copolymer onto an organic or inorganic substrate. The resulting slide has the properties of on-spot hydrophilic/hydrophobic dynamic conversion, as well as on-spot hydrophilic enhancement for the preparation of high-density and high-efficiency bio-chip/microarray.

On-spot hydrophilic enhanced slide and preparation thereof

The invention features a method for preparing a high-density functional slide by coating a sol-gel containing amine-group bearing silanes and a solution containing polyaldehyde groups onto an organic or inorganic substrate, respectively. The resulting slide is useful in the preparation of highly homogeneous functional-group slides and the high-density and high-efficiency bio-chip/microarray.

High-density functional slide and preparation method thereof

A method is provided for preparing an active slide, including introducing a monomer containing an aldehyde group, or a mixture of a monomer containing an aldehyde group and an acidic functional group provider into a plasma chamber; and depositing the aldehyde group and acidic functional group onto the surface of an organic or inorganic matrix using plasma deposition to form a slide comprising a layer of polymerized actively functional groups thereon. The aldehyde groups and negatively charged groups are deposited on the surface of the active slide, such that the bio-molecules bound thereto possess the properties of an inducible orientation and thus form a mono-layer.
