Abstract

In order to provide a probe array capable of detecting target substances with simple operation and a good reproducibility, the present invention provides a probe array 1 comprising a cylindrical first member 11, a columned second member 12 housed in the hollow portion of the first member 11 and probe groups P immobilized onto the outer face of the second member 12, wherein spacers 13a are provided on the outer face of the second member 12 for preventing contact between the inner face of the first member 11 and the outer face of the second member 12.

Claims

1. A probe array comprising a tubular first member, a second member housed in the hollow portion of the first member, and probes immobilized on the outer face of the second member,

wherein a spacer for preventing contact between the inner face of the first member and the outer face of the second member is provided on the inner face of the first member or on the outer face of the second member.
