摘要:
Mixtures of dsDNA fragments are separated by Matched Ion Polynucleotide Chromatography (MIPC) using an isocratic mobile phase to elute polynucleic acid from an MIPC column. The use of isocratic elution conditions provides a marked improvement in the separation of dsDNA fragments compared to gradient elution conditions. Isocratic elution can also be used to effect an improved separation of heteroduplex and homoduplex mixtures when the chromatography is performed under partially denaturing conditions. In addition, dsDNA fragments are bound to the stationary phase under isocratic conditions until a solvent concentration is reached which releases fragments of a particular base pair length range. This separation process is different from the equilibrium partitioning process observed under gradient elution conditions.
摘要:
A batch process for obtaining polynucleotide fragments, such as dsDNA, having a selected size from a mixture of polynucleotide fragments including the steps of a) applying a solution of the mixture of polynucleotide fragments and a counterion agent to a binding medium having a hydrophobic surface; b) contacting the binding medium with a first stripping solvent and counterion agent, the first stripping solvent having a concentration of organic component sufficient to release from the binding medium all polynucleotide fragments having a size smaller than the selected size, and removing the first stripping solvent from the binding medium; and c) contacting the binding medium with a second stripping solvent having a concentration of organic component sufficient to release from the binding medium the polynucleotide fragments having the selected size, and removing the second stripping solvent from the binding medium. The binding medium can be organic polymer or inorganic particle beads. The mixture of polynucleotides can be the product of a PCR amplification. The binding medium can be contained within a column, a web or a container.

Vapor phase catalytic hydrogenation of maleic anhydride to gamma-butyrolactone is achieved in a conversion of 95% or more and a selectivity of 80% or more during a prolonged period of production. The process uses an activated catalyst prepared by reducing a catalyst composition comprising 30-65% by weight of CuO, 18-50% by weight of ZnO and 8-22% by weight of Al.sub.2 O.sub.3, and activating the reduced catalyst composition in hydrogen at an activation temperature of at least 400.degree. C., preferably 400.degree. to 525.degree. C., and optimally about 425.degree. C. The process suitably is carried out under predetermined and advantageous process conditions, including a defined molar ratio of hydrogen to maleic anhydride in the vapor reactant stream, a selected pressure during hydrogenation, a defined feed rate space velocity, a predetermined contact time, and a suitable reaction temperature.

摘要:
N-substituted cyclic lactam esters are made from biologically active organic acids and N-haloalkyl substituted cyclic lactam, preferably N-chloromethyl pyrrolidone. Such esters provide slow release of the organic acids in situ through slow hydrolysis of the ester to release the organic acid and the N-alkyl substituted cyclic lactam. The esters are useable for delivering a large variety of biologically active organic acids in slow release fashion to target organisms and promote effective long term therapeutic treatment. In particular, an ester made from acetyl salicyclic acid and chloromethyl pyrrolidone provides a vehicle for dermal penetration and slow release of aspirin for long term treatment.
摘要:
A Matched Ion Polynucleotide Chromatography method and system for size-based segregation of a mixture of RNA molecules. The method includes applying the mixture to a polymeric separation medium having non-polar surfaces and eluting the RNA molecules with a mobile phase which includes counterion reagent and an organic component. The preferred surfaces are characterized by being substantially free from multivalent cations which are free to interfere with RNA segregation. The elution is preferably performed at a temperature sufficient to denature the RNA. The method can be used in segregating RNA molecules having lengths in the range of about 100 to 20,000 nucleotides. Improved segregation is obtained using a chromatography column having an ID greater than about 5 mm. Examples of separation media include beads and monolithic columns.
摘要:
Non-polar polymeric separation media, such as beads or monoliths, are suitable for chromatographic separation of mixtures of polynucleotides when the surfaces of the media are unsubstituted or substituted with a hydrocarbon group having from one to 1,000,000 carbons and when the surfaces are substantially free from mutivalent cation contamination. The polymeric media provide efficient separation of polynucleotides using Matched Ion Polynucleolide Chromatography. Methods for maintaining and storing the polymeric media include treatment with multivalent cation binding agents.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for representing double stranded nucleic acid fragments which have been separated by a chromatographic process as an array of bands which can be accurately quantified, optimized and stored. Using, for example, a Matched Ion Polynucleotide Chromatography (MIPC) process, an analog output from a UV detector is digitized and input to a computer. The digitized signal is converted to a linear array of bands which may be displayed on a video display terminal. The intensity and/or color of a band may correlate to the amount of double stranded nucleic acid in the respective fraction or the respective double stranded nucleic acid fragment above a user selected threshold level at a corresponding point in the digitized signal. The calculated base pair length, concentration, and retention time of each band in the array of bands may be displayed in alphanumeric form.
