    Abstract: Each embodiment includes a central sample reservoir and a plurality of satellite reservoirs. In a first embodiment, a first electrode in electrical contact with the central reservoir is charged and second electrodes in electrical contact with the satellite reservoirs are sequentially charged, thereby pI filtering molecules in the central reservoir into the satellite reservoirs. In a second embodiment, the central reservoir is configured to rotate so that molecules in a sample in the central reservoir are centrifugally pI-filtered into the satellite reservoirs. In a third embodiment, first and second electrodes proximate opposite first and second satellite reservoirs, respectively, are charged. Some molecules in a sample are pI filtered into the first and second satellite reservoirs. Third and fourth electrodes proximate opposite third and fourth satellite reservoirs, respectively, are then charged. Some molecules in a sample are pI filtered into the third and fourth satellite reservoirs.

    Abstract: In an embodiment, a porous composite particulate material includes a plurality of composite particles. Each composite particle includes an acid-base-resistant core particle at least partially surrounded by one or more layers of acid-base-resistant shell particles. The shell particles are adhered to the core particle by a polymeric layer. The shell particles and/or core particles may be made from an acid-base-resistant material that is stable in harsh chemical conditions. For example, the shell particles and/or core particles may be made from diamond, graphitic carbon, silicon carbide, boron nitride, tungsten carbide, niobium carbide, zirconia, noble metals, acid-base stable highly cross-linked polymers, acid-base stable at least partially cross-linked polymers, titania, alumina, thoria combinations of the foregoing, or other acid-base-resistant materials. The porous composite particulate materials disclosed herein and related methods and devices may be used in separation technologies, including, but not limited to, chromatography and solid phase extraction.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for forming agarose or cored agarose beads. The process involves dissolving/gelation the agarose in a suitable liquid, mixing it with a hydrophobic liquid to form an emulsion and maintaining that emulsion at a temperature equal to or greater than the gelation point of the agarose, passing it through a static mixer to create agarose droplets and solidifying the agarose droplets in a second bath of hydrophobic liquid. The beads can then be washed and used or further processed to crosslink the agarose and/or add various functionalities on to the agarose. Another method for solidifying the agarose droplets is by using a heat exchanger to cool the stream continuously after it exits the static mixer. A similar process is used for the “cored” beads except cores, preferably in bead form, are introduced to the agarose before it enters the first hydrophobic liquid so that the agarose forms a coating on the cores. A similar process with either agarose beads (made by this or another process) or cored agarose (made by this or another process) can be used to add multiple layers of agarose on to the existing beads. An apparatus for running the process is also disclosed.
