The present invention relates to a device for performing an assay, which device comprises a substrate having oriented through-going channels, said channels opening out on a surface for sample application, the channels in at least one area of the surface for sample application being provided with a first binding substance capable of binding to an analyte. The object of the present invention is to provide a substrate having both a high channel density and a high porosity, allowing high density arrays comprising different first binding substances to be applied to the surface for sample application. More in particular, the object of the present invention is to provide a device comprising a relatively cheap substrate that does not require the use of any typical microfabrication technology and, that offers an improved control over the liquid distribution over the surface of the substrate. The above objects are achieved with a device as mentioned above wherein the porous substrate is an electrochemically manufactured metal oxide membrane.

1. A method for the detection of an analyte in a sample the method comprising the steps ofa) contacting the sample with a device comprising a substrate having through-going channels, the channels opening our on a surface for sample application, the channels in at least one area of the surface for sample application being provided with a binding substance capable of binding to an analyte, wherein the binding substance is within the through-going channels in the substrate; b) passing the sample back and forth through the membrane; and c) detecting whether binding has occurred between the binding substance and the analyte. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the analyte comprises a nucleic acid, an antibody, an antigen, a receptor, a hapten or ligand for a receptor.3. The method of claim 2, wherein the analyte is derivable from a human immunodeficiency virus.4. The method of claim 1, wherein after step b) but before step c), the sample is again passed back and forth through the membrane in a manner sufficient to allow binding to take place between the binding substance and the analyte to be detected.5. The method of claim 1, wherein the substrate is an electrochemically manufactured metal oxide membrane and the binding substance is covalently bound to the substrate.6. The method of claim 5, wherein the metal oxide membrane is comprised of aluminum oxide.7. The method of claim 1, wherein the substrate is an electrochemically manufactured metal oxide membrane and the binding substance is not covalently bound to the substrate.8. The method of claim 7, wherein the metal oxide membrane is comprised of aluminum oxide.9. The method of claim 1, wherein the binding substance is synthesized in situ.10. The method of claim 9, wherein a compound for synthesizing the binding substance is applied to a particular area using ink-jet technology.11. The method of claim 10, wherein the compound is applied using electrostatic attraction.12. The method of claim 1, wherein the binding substance is applied to a particular area using ink-jet technology.13. The method of claim 12, wherein the binding substance is applied using electrostatic attraction.14. The method of claim 1, further comprising using the results of step to determine sequence information of a nucleic acid.15. The method of claim 1, wherein the binding substance is an oligonucleotide.16. The method of claim 1, wherein the binding substance is a sequence of amino acids.17. The method of claim 1, wherein the binding substance is an antibody.18. The method of claim 1, wherein the binding substance is an antigen.19. The method of claim 1, wherein the binding substance is a receptor or a ligand for a receptor.20. The method of claim 1, wherein the binding substance is a hapten.
