In the presence of BSA, the fluorescence spectrum observed from the bromophenol blue microarray exhibited a significant red shift of the maximum emission wavelength. Our results show that

After preparing 10 × 10 spot microarrays using bromophenol blue solution as shown in the inset of Figure 6b, the patterns were either incubated with a 0.5 µL droplet of an analyte solution containing bovine serum albumin (BSA) or a clear solution to give a negative control.

  • serum albumin was compared with that of linear polyelectrolytes (linear-PEs), both species being of similar molecular weight. LbL deposition within the cylindrical AAO geometry for different pore diameters (d0 = 25–80 nm) for the various macromolecular species, showed that the multilayer film growth was
