Abstract

Disclosed is a process to construct multi-component biomolecule or cellular arrays suitable for use in SPR imaging studies of large molecule, cellular/molecular, and cell/cell interactions. The success of the procedure hinges on the use of a reversible protecting group to modify reversibly .omega.-functionalized alkanethiols self-assembled on metal substrates.
