Abstract:
The present invention provides a positively charged microporous membrane having a protein binding capacity of about 25 mg/ml or greater comprising a hydrophilic porous substrate and a crosslinked coating that provides a fixed positive charge to the membrane. The present invention further provides a positively charged microporous membrane comprising a porous substrate and a crosslinked coating comprising pendant cationic groups. The membranes of the present invention find use in a variety of applications including ion-exchange chromatography, macromolecular transfer, as well as detection, filtration and purification of biomolecules such as proteins, nucleic acids, endotoxins, and the like.
Abstract:
Multi-layered macromolecules wherein the layers are covalently bonded together and wherein the macromolecules are covalently bonded to solid particulate substrates, methods for the preparation of such compositions, and methods for their uses in a multitude of end use applications ranging from the purification of waste chemical and metal process streams to the separation and identification of proteins, peptides, and oligionucleotides.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a surface modified polymer comprising a surface which is covalently bonded to a surface modifying compound. Formation of the covalent bond between the polymer and the surface modifying compound is achieved by a reaction between an intrinsic functional group that is present in the polymer and the functional group of the surface modifying compound. By using a polymer having an intrinsic functional group, a separate surface activation step is avoided.
Abstract:
Acids can be removed from aprotic organic liquids by bringing the liquids into contact with polyalkyleneimines that have been applied to a support. Polyethyleneimine that has been applied to amorphous silicon dioxide is particularly suitable for this method. The method can be used, for example, to eliminate acidic components from fluorinated esters.
Abstract:
Use of a composite sorbent having an at least partial coating on a support, which coating comprises essentially polyanilines or derivatives of polyanilines for the separation, isolation, identification, purification and/or detection of biomolecules in particular nucleic acids, proteins, polysaccharides in analytical or preparative scale.
Abstract:
A method for surface modification of a material by means of introducing the phosphorylcholine group represented by the following formula (1-1) onto the surface of the material by treating a material having amino groups with a chemical compound containing an aldehyde derivative obtained by the oxidative ring-opening reaction of glycerophosphorylcholine. The method of the present invention provides various materials such as medical materials having superior biocompatibility and hydrophilicity.
Abstract:
Methods are disclosed for coating at least a portion of a hydrophobic surface, including the surfaces of plastics or other polymers. Such methods include the use of a first coating layer and/or region that interacts with the hydrophobic surface, although the formation of a chemical bond between the first coating layer and the hydrophobic surface is not required. Subsequent layers may then interact chemically or non-chemically with at least a portion of the first coating layer and/or region. Such coated surfaces may be part of a device or apparatus, including microfluidic devices.
Abstract:
A silica-based material that includes a silica-based substrate and a polymerized organic material disposed thereon. The polymerized organic material is made from reactive organic moieties bonded to the silica-based substrate.
Abstract:
The present invention is to provide a method of producing a separating agent for an enantiomeric isomer having high optical resolution power together with sufficient solvent resistance. That is, a method of producing a separating agent for an enantiomeric isomer comprising the steps of allowing the porous carrier to carry the optically active polymer compound by bringing the porous carrier into contact with a dope of the optically active polymer compound; and exposing a product to radiation.
Abstract:
The objective of this invention is to provide a process for producing an optically active isomer of ethyl 7-[2-cyclopropyl-4-(4-fluorophenyl)quinolin-3-yl]-3,5-dihydroxy-6-heptenoate by optically resolving an optical isomer mixture of the compound at a high productivity. The process is characterized by employing a filler comprising a carrier and a specific amount of cellulose tris (4-chlorophenyl carbamate) supported the carrier and carrying out chromatographic separation under the condition that the capacity factors have specific values.
