The assay makes use of stable transfected Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO-AT(1)R) expressing the AT(1)R. A sequential saturation assay principle was used in which receptor binding sites of the CHO-AT(1)R cells are blocked by the analyte in a concentration-dependent manner. Afterwards, TAMRA-angiotensin II, a fluorescence-labeled ligand, was added to bind to the remaining free binding sites of the receptor. In consequence, the fluorescence signal determined is inversely proportional to the concentration of the analyte.

Modification procedures were chosen in a way to obtain high reproducibility with a minimum of time consumption. The idea behind this is a complete regeneration of a microarray printhead before or after usage to achieve best printing results over a typical print job. A sequence of low-pressure oxygen-plasma and plasma polymerization with hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDSO) was used to regenerate printheads. Proof of the concept is given through quality control performed with a spotter implemented CCD camera, contact angle measurements and a typical hybridization experiment. Stable printing results were obtained over 3000 activations showing that the presented method is suitable for treatment of microarray printheads.
