We have created a new functional biosensor coating composed of polyelectrolyte multilayers containing gold nanoparticles. This gold‐hybridized polyelectrolyte multilayer film possesses a stable nanoporous structure under physiological conditions. Antibody molecules were successfully conjugated onto the gold nanoparticles within the film. This functional coating successfully extinguished false signals from non‐specific binding of proteins and cells and also provided highly enhanced detection sensitivity. Furthermore, the drastic differences in protein and cellular adhesion properties between a chip coated with the nanoporous PEM film and a bare chip demonstrate that morphological control of biological interactions on chip surfaces is possible.
