Benefits of technology

[0011]The present inventors carried out intensive studies in order to solve the foregoing problems, and as a result, found out that the immobilized amount of nucleic acid molecules and the bond strength to nucleic acid molecules are significantly improved by further providing an electrostatic layer for electrostatically attracting nucleic acid molecules on a solid support having a functional group capable of covalently binding to a nucleic acid molecule on a substrate, thereby accomplishing the present invention.

Problems solved by technology

However, the foregoing thermal cycle consumed a lot of time, and it took several hours to obtain a required amount of DNA.
In addition, when reaction is carried out by controlling the temperature (heating and cooling), there is a limit on changing the temperature in an instant, and changeover of each step cannot be performed smoothly, whereby the accuracy of the nucleotide sequence to be amplified may be affected, or DNA other than the target may be replicated in some cases.
Further, in order to change the temperature rapidly, a special apparatus or technique is needed, therefore there are an economic problem such as investment in equipment and a technical problem.
However, the amount of DNA immobilized on the foregoing solid support aid the bond strength to DNA are not always sufficient, therefore, the emergence of a solid support capable of immobilizing DNA in a higher proportion and with a higher bond strength to DNA has been awaited.

Introduction of Amino Group-Containing Compound Into Chamber When Applying Surface-Treated Layer To Substrate (1)

[0079]DLC layer was formed at a thickness of 10 nm on a slide glass of 25 mm (width)×75 mm (length)×1 mm (thickness) by the ionization deposition method, at an accelerating voltage of 0.5 kV, using a mixed gas of 95% by volume of methane gas and 5% by volume of hydrogen gas as material. Then, using methane gas as a carrier gas, at the rate of 5 cm3 / minute, it was introduced into a chamber through the ethylenediamine incubated at 15° C. At a working pressure of 2 Pa and an accelerating voltage of 0.5 kV, using methane and ethylenediamine as material, a layer consisting of C, N and H was formed at a thickness of 10 nm.

[0080]Then, after butanetetracarboxyllc acid anhydride, as a polyvalent carboxylic acid, was condensed with the amino group in the surface-treated layer consisting of C, N and H formed with methane and ethylenediamine as material, it was activated by being dip...

Formation of Electrostatic Layer By Post-Treatment

[0092]DLC layer was formed at a thickness of 10 nm on a slide glass of 25 mm (width)×75 mm (length)×1 mm (thickness) by the ionization deposition method, at an accelerating voltage of 0.5 kV, using a mixed gas of 95% by volume of methane gas and 5% by volume of hydrogen gas as material.

[0093]Then, it was chlorinated by being irradiated with ultraviolet rays for 30 minutes in chlorine gas. Then, the substrate was dipped in a polyacrylic amine aqueous solution (0.1 g / L), whereby an electrostatic layer was formed.

Abstract

It is intended to provide a solid support capable of immobilizing nucleic acid molecules in a high proportion, and with a high bond strength to nucleic acid molecules. The solid support comprises a substrate and, provided thereon, an electrostatic layer for electrostatically attracting nucleic acid molecules and functional groups capable of covalently binding to nucleic acid molecules.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to a support for immobilizing DNA or the like and an immobilized nucleic acid molecule.BACKGROUND ART[0002]Conventionally, in JP-A-7-75S44 and JP-A-7-303469, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is reported as a method of synthesizing a nucleotide sequence from an existing sequence.[0003]The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a method in which a target DNA is flanked by a pair of primers, a DNA polymerase is allowed to act on it repeatedly, whereby the region flanked by the primers can be continuously amplified.[0004]By PCR, only the target sequence can be substantially correctly amplified to produce a large number of copies, further an efficient amplification is possible in a short time, therefore, PCR is widely used for a variety of studies, assays, tests and the like in biochemical, medical fields, etc., at present.[0005]It has been conventionally assumed that the principle of PCR is to control temperature, and the reaction is perform...
