ABSTRACT:
A method of making a microarray comprising the steps of:—providing a support;—coating on the support a fluid composition containing microspheres and gelatin;—immobilizing the microspheres in the gelatin coating;—partially digesting the gelatin with an enzyme to expose surfaces of the microspheres; and—removing the enzyme and digested gelatin from the coating.
