Title:
BIOMOLECULE ANALYSIS METHOD, BIOMOLECULE ANALYZING REAGENT, AND BIOMOLECULE ANALYSIS DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2022/264243
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
This biomolecule analysis method is characterized by including: preparing a biomolecule analysis device provided with a thin film having nanopores with diameters in the range of ±20% of the diameters of biomolecules, a first liquid tank and a second liquid tank separated by the thin film, a first electrode disposed in the first liquid tank, a second electrode disposed in the second liquid tank, and a biopolymer degradation mechanism that degrades a biopolymer into the biomolecules; degrading the biopolymer into the biomolecules in the biopolymer degradation mechanism; and applying a voltage between the first electrode and the second electrode, under conditions where a measurement solution is enclosed in the first liquid tank and the second liquid tank, to measure a current flowing between the first electrode and the second electrode. The biomolecule analysis method is also characterized in that said measurement liquid comprises ammonium ions and sulfate ions.
