Abstract	Immobilisation of biomaterials has been widely used in many fields, such as industry, biochemistry and immunology (Cheetham, 1985; Hermanson et al., 1992). This technology employs a large number of natural and artificial materials as matrices (Kennedy and Cabral, 1987). In our laboratory, we have proposed immobilisation procedures using dacron (Carneiro Leão et al., 1994), polyaniline (Nadruz et al., 1996) and glyptal (Jordão et al., 1996). Here, polyvinyl alcoholglutaraldehyde (PVA-glutaraldehyde) network is described for antigen and enzyme immobilisation. Previously, this material was used for the diagnosis of plague as a solid-phase in ELISA (Araujo et al., 1996) and also in laser induced fluorescence (Carvalho et al., 1996).
