Abstract

The invention relates to a method for activating a surface by increasing the hydrophilicity and/or for binding target structures, particularly selected from the group consisting of proteins, cellular proteins, proteins, cells, carbohydrates, peptides and amino acids. It also relates to the use of an oxidoreductase for activating a surface for the mentioned bonds and to corresponding activated surfaces.
