Abstract
The present invention relates to a method of silanizing surfaces for use in detecting organic molecules and biomolecules by means of surface-sensitive detection methods. The molecules to be detected become covalently bonded to the solid, plane test surface which contains, by means of silanization, groups which are functional for the covalent bonding. The invention relates to a silanization technique, which combines a special cleaning technique for the surfaces to be silanized and a silanization process at a low pressure and with the silane in gas phase and at an enhanced temperature of the surfaces to be silanized. The method gives reproducible surfaces provided with stable, homogenous and functional silane layers of mono-layer character.
