Abstract

Methods for attaching one component of a ligand-anti-ligand pair onto a solid phase surface. The component may be attached to a photoactivatable cross-linker capable of coupling the component to a colloidal medium coating the surface or alternatively, the component may be coupled to a bead and held in place against the surface by an overlay of the colloidal media having voids and spaces smaller than the diameter of the particle but large enough to permit diffusion of the other of the ligand-anti-ligand pair to be detected.
