Process for producing reaction site array
First Claim
1. A process for producing a reaction site array comprising a plurality of reaction sites to conduct a reaction between two or more kinds of substances in a liquid medium, each of the reaction sites being composed of a first region having a first affinity to the liquid medium and separated from each other by a second region having a second affinity to the liquid medium which is lower than the first affinity, and the second region being raised from the first region, the process comprising the steps of:
- providing a support; and
forming a matrix pattern having the second affinity and being raised from the support surface, to form the first region composed of the support surface exposed corresponding to the matrix pattern and the second region composed of the matrix pattern.

Abstract
A reaction site array to be used in conducting a plurality of reactions between two or more kinds of substances in a liquid medium with a trace amount is provided. The reaction site array comprises a plurality of reaction sites separated from each other. Each reaction site is composed of a first region and a second region. The second region is raised from the first region to separate the first regions from each other. The second region has an affinity to a liquid medium lower than that of the first region. A preparation process of the reaction site and a reaction process using the reaction site array is also provided.
