The present invention relates to a water-soluble polymer crystallization gel capable of retaining various crystallization agents that promote crystallization of water-soluble polymers such as proteins, peptides, amino acids, and nucleic acids, and a microarray using the same. Etc. A transparent gel-like material holding various crystallization agents can be formed by polymerizing a sugar derivative monomer in an aqueous medium containing a crystallization agent. The obtained gel is used as a crystallization agent that can be used to search for many crystallization conditions with a small amount of sample by contacting with a sample containing a water-soluble polymer such as protein, peptide, amino acid, and nucleic acid. be able to.
