Abstract

The invention relates to a method for detecting polynucleotides on a substrate, whereby the substrate contains a multitude of separate detection regions each accommodating different polynucleotides. The polynucleotides in the detection regions exist, contrary to known DNA chip test formats, in a form that is not bound to the substrate. The invention also relates to a device for implementing said method.
