1. Method for identifying a first polymer sequence (4) which is bound to a first phase (5) which reflects electromagnetic waves, which method comprises the following steps:
- a) bringing the first polymer sequence (4) into contact with a second polymer sequence (3) which has affinity for it and which is bound, directly or indirectly via metallic clusters (2), to a solid second phase (1) which is permeable for electromagnetic waves, b) penetrating the second phase (1) with electromagnetic waves, and c) detecting the change in the properties of the reflected electromagnetic waves.

Abstract
The invention relates to a method for identifying a first polymer sequence bound to a first phase that reflects electromagnetic waves. The inventive method includes the following steps: a) bringing the first polymer sequence into contact with an affine second polymer sequence, which is directly or indirectly bound, via metallic clusters, to a solid second phase that is permeable to electromagnetic waves; b) radiating electromagnetic waves through the second phase, and; c) detecting the alteration of the properties of the reflected electromagnetic waves.

- 17. Device for identifying a first polymer sequence (4) which is bound to a first phase (5) which reflects electromagnetic waves, wherein a second phase (1), which is permeable for electromagnetic waves, possesses, on one surface, a second polymer sequence (3) which is bound directly or indirectly, by way of metallic clusters (2), such that the second polymer sequence (3) can be brought into contact with the first polymer sequence (4).
