ABSTRACT:
In one embodiment, the present invention provides a biopolymer-containing monolayer comprising: thiol-derivatized biopolymers and organic thiols bound to a metal substrate. In another embodiment, the present invention provides a method for forming this biopolymer-containing monolayer. Preferably, the biopolymers are single-stranded DNA probes.
