Abstract

A method of covalently immobilizing a charged chemical species on or near a sensor surface of a mass-sensitive chemical sensor, the sensor surface bearing functional groups capable of forming covalent bonds with the chemical species, the method involving the application of an electric field between the charged chemical species and the sensor surface such that the electrostatic attraction therebetween is increased.
