Abstract:
In a first embodiment the present invention relates to a sorbent comprising a porous inorganic solid support material having on its surface a film of a crosslinked polyvinylamine comprising derivatized amine groups and amine groups binding to the surface of the support material via electron donor/acceptor interactions. In a second embodiment the present invention relates to a sorbent comprising a solid support material, the surface of which comprises a residue of a general formula (I), wherein the residue is attached via a covalent single bond to a functional group on the surface of either the bulk solid support material itself or of a polymer film on the surface of the solid support material. Furthermore, the present invention relates to the use of the sorbents according to the invention for the purification of organic molecules, in particular pharmaceutical active compounds, preferably in chromatographic applications.
Abstract:
A Product is described and which contains at least one type of ligand bound to a separation material and which allows selective binding or cleavage of a biomolecule for example in human blood.
Abstract:
The invention concerns a method for treating a fluid. According to the invention, the fluid is contacted with a substrate at the surface of which there is a network of organic molecules, hereafter referred to as “network molecules”. There is a central core and at least one lateral arm, the molecules being adsorbed at the surface of the substrate. The invention also concerns a two-dimensional molecular sieve formed by the substrate at the surface of which a network of network molecules is adsorbed. The invention further concerns a module for treating a fluid including a circulating device for the fluid to be treated, the device containing one or more two-dimensional molecule sieves.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to diionic liquid salts of dicationic or dianionic molecules, as well as solvents comprising such diionic liquids and the use of such diionic liquids as the stationary phase in a gas chromatographic column.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a sorption agent for removing endotoxins from a biological fluid, the sorption agent having a water-insoluble, porous carrier and polymyxin, which is immobilized on the carrier, the carrier having a neutral, hydrophobic surface and polymyxin being immobilized on the surface of the carrier via hydrophobic interaction. The sorption agent is used in extracorporeal blood purification, in particular for treating individuals with sepsis.
Abstract:
This invention describes the identification of novel organic dye chemistries that can be used as affinity baits to capture proteins and other biomolecules useful in the fields of medical diagnostics, environmental science, toxicology, and infectious disease. Incorporation of unique affinity dye compounds within hydrogel capture particles improves analyte yield and preanalytical precision, and stabilizes the analyte against degradation, while increasing measurement sensitivity. The particles in this invention can be used for routine clinical testing as well as for discovery of low abundance disease biomarkers. Example hydrogel particles containing new high affinity bait chemistries were used to identify a new set of human serum biomarkers.
Abstract:
This invention provides methods of retentate chromatography for resolving analytes in a sample. The methods involve adsorbing the analytes to a substrate under a plurality of different selectivity conditions, and detecting the analytes retained on the substrate by desorption spectrometry. The methods are useful in biology and medicine, including clinical diagnostics and drug discovery.
Abstract:
For the separation, removal, isolation, purification, characterization, identification or quantification of plasminogen or a protein that is a plasminogen analogue, an affinity adsorbent is used that is a compound of formula (II) wherein one X is N and the other is N, C—Cl or C—CN; A is a support matrix, optionally linked to the triazine ring by a spacer; Z is O, S or N—R and R is H, C1-6 alkyl, C1-6 hydroxyalkyl, benzyl or &bgr;-phenylethyl; B is an optionally substituted hydrocarbon linkage containing from 1 to 10 carbon atoms; D is H, OH or a primary amino, secondary amino, tertiary amino, quaternary ammonium, imidazole, guanidino or amidino group; or B-D is —CHCOOH—(CH2)3-4—NH2; and q is 2 to 6.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for separating at least one non-aggregated protein from a liquid protein preparation by contacting said preparation with a multimodal anion exchanger in the presence of protein-excluded zwitterions at a concentration of 0.25 to 2.5 M.
