Abstract

Antibodies which are immobilized and covalently bound to a matrix polymer by means of a modification in a carbohydrate region of the antibodies; wherein the binding of the antibodies is effected by condensing at least one aldehyde group in an oxidized carbohydrate region and at least one epoxide function of an epoxy-group-containing matrix polymer, said condensation being conducted in the presence of a bifunctional reagent which has, on one end position of a spacer unit having at least three members, an amino group capable of condensing with the aldehyde group, and which has on the other end position a group which reacts covalently with the epoxide function.
