Abstract:
This review focuses on the application of novel technologies for generating biocompatible surfaces for high-throughput screening (HTS) of proteins. Various methods of coupling and spotting proteins on self-assembled monolayer (SAM) surfaces will be described along with the protein chip challenges pertaining to spot homogeneity, morphology, biocompatibility and reproducibility.
