Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for grafting, in a covalent manner, a coloured indicator having at least one aromatic primary amine function onto the surface of a solid substrate, including the steps that consist of: (a) preparing, from the coloured indicator having at least one aromatic primary amine function, the corresponding diazonium salt; (b) placing the solid substrate in contact with a solution containing the diazonium salt prepared in step (a) and subjecting the solution to non-electrochemical conditions for an optimal grafting time whereby organic chains in which the units are derivatives of the diazonium salt are grafted, in a covalent manner, onto the surface of the solid substrate; (c) washing the solid substrate thus grafted; (d) repeating steps (b) and (c) or possibly steps (a) to (c) at least once. The present invention also relates to a kit for implementing such a method.
