Described herein are methods for separating one or more analytes present in a fluid sample. The methods involve passing the fluid through or into a microporous material, wherein the analytes are localized near the surface of the microporous material. Additional processing steps such as hybridization and amplification can be performed once the analyte is localized. In one method, once the analyte is localized, the analyte can be detected, counted, and correlated in order to determine the concentration of the analyte in the sample. In another method, the localized analyte is destabilized to make the localized analyte more accessible for chemical manipulation. Modified microporous materials and composite materials are also disclosed that can be used in any of the methods and articles described herein. The composite is composed of a microporous material and a pigment, wherein the pigment is incorporated in the microporous material. The pigments alter the optical properties of the microporous material, which enhances the detection of analyte once it is localized. Methods for making pigmented composites are also disclosed. In a further aspect, various kits and articles such as filtration devices containing any of the microporous materials described herein are provided.

1. A method for detecting an analyte, comprising (a) passing a fluid sample comprising the analyte through or into a microporous material, wherein the analyte is localized near the surface of the microporous material;(b) destabilizing at least some of the localized analyte; and(c) detecting the destabilized analyte,wherein the microporous material comprises a composite comprising a microporous material and a pigment, wherein the pigment is incorporated in the microporous material. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the pigment is covalently attached to the microporous material. 3. The method of claim 2, wherein the pigment is attached to the microporous material by a linker. 4. The method of claim 3, wherein the linker comprises an organosilyl group. 5. The method of claim 2, wherein the pigment is attached to the microporous material by a hydroxyl group, a carboxyl group, a sulfhydryl group, an amine group, or a combination thereof present on the surface of the microporous material. 6. The method of claim 2, wherein the pigment comprises an organic dye. 7. The method of claim 6, wherein the organic dye comprises an isothiocyanate, a triazine, or an ester. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein the microporous material comprises a ceramic, a metal, carbon, or glass. 9. The method of claim 1, wherein the microporous material comprises a metal oxide. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the metal oxide comprises aluminum oxide, zirconium oxide, titanium oxide, a zeolite, or a combination thereof. 11. The method of claim 1, wherein the microporous material comprises an inorganic electrochemically formed material or an etched material. 12. The method of claim 1, wherein the microporous material comprises micropores having a diameter of from about 0.02 microns to about 0.2 microns. 13. The method of claim 1, wherein the microporous material comprises aluminum oxide and the pigment comprises an organic dye, wherein the organic dye is covalently attached to the microporous material by a linker comprising an organosilyl group. 14. The method of claim 1, wherein the pigment is deposited on the microporous material. 15. The method of claim 14, wherein the pigment comprises an elemental metal, a metal oxide, a metal alloy, or a combination thereof. 16. The method of claim 15, wherein when the pigment comprises an elemental metal, the elemental metal comprises a transition metal. 17. The method of claim 16, wherein the transition metal comprises palladium, nickel, silver, gold, or a combination thereof. 18. The method of claim 1, wherein the labeled is optically detected with a scanning confocal epifluorometer. 19. The method of claim 1, wherein the labeled is optically detected with a CCD array based fluorescent device.
