Abstract
The results of the study of various modification methods of polymer microspheres for their use in immunochemical reactions as bioligand carriers are reported. Ion etching and electron microscopy were used to show that the copolymer microspheres have a porous structure non-uniform in density. The Maillard reaction was used for the first time in the modification of copolymer microspheres by dextrans of different molecular weight as a simplest way of covalent immobilization of saccharides on their surface. The physicochemical properties of polystyrene-divinylbenzene and polyglycidyl methacrylate-ethylene glycol dimethacrylate microspheres modified with diamines and dextrans were determined for the first time. The conditions under which the bioligand (diphtheria toxoid) immobilized on their surface retained the native conformation and the diagnostics obtained on their basis have high sensitivity were revealed.
