摘要:
Polyolefin particles are chemically modified by oxidation to provide a large surface area and high loading. The particles result in low back pressure in column systems, and are economical to manufacture. The particles are useful as supports in a wide range of applications including general organic as well as biopolymer synthesis, library methods, purification processes and enzyme mediated processes. In a preferred embodiment, polyethylene or polypropylene particles are oxidized in a solution containing trifluoroacetic acid or trifluoromethane sulfonic acid, chromium trioxide and sulfuric acid to provide the particles with a chemically reactive irregular surface and open channels that extend below the surface and up to essentially the length of the radius of the particles resulting in increased surface area and decreased density. The particles have pendant functional groups produced by the oxidation and/or by subsequent chemical reaction. The pendant functional groups may be attached to spacer arms that are attached to the surface of the particles. Biological material such as proteins, enzymes and whole cells may be immobilized on the particles.

Benzazoles, including benzatriazoles and benzimidazoles are employed in phospate triester oligonucleotide synthesis. The benzazoles form arylbenzazolide coupling agents, and phosphorodibenzazolides. Processes employing these reagents are also disclosed.
摘要:
A chemical processing system is disclosed for the automated dissolution, dispersing and reaction of chemicals, especially for synthesizing proteins. The system includes a plurality of storage cartridges containing a first chemical in fluid communication with a reservoir containing a second chemical to be reacted with the first chemical. Each cartridge includes a pump (e.g., a plunger) which operates by changing the internal volume of the cartridge. The pump permits bi-directional flow of the first chemical into and out of the reservoir and cartridge to promote mixing and reacting with the second chemical in the reservoir to produce a third chemical.
摘要:
The present invention provides a new class of solids supports for synthesis of modified oligomers of nucleic acids, and nucleic acid probes that have a format expediently synthesized on the new supports. Exemplary solid supports include at least one quencher bound through a linker to the solid support. Various exemplary embodiments include a moiety that stabilizes a duplex, triplex or higher order aggregation (e.g., hybridization) of nucleic acids of which the oligomer of the invention is a component. Other components of the solid support include moieties that stabilize aggregations of nucleic acids, e.g., intercalators, minor groove binding moieties, bases modified with a stabilizing moiety (e.g., alkynyl moieties, and fluoroalkyl moieties), and conformational stabilizing moieties, such as those described in commonly owned U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2007/0059752.

Methods and compositions for immediately immunizing an individual against any molecule or compound are provided. The present invention is directed to an immunity linker with at least two sites; (1) at least one first binding site that binds to an immune response component in an individual, and (2) at least one second binding site that binds specifically to a desired compound or molecule, the target. The second binding sites are preferably thiolated aptamers that have the benefit of increased stability, resistance to degradation and longer circulating half life. Methods of making and using pharmaceutical compositions including immunity linker molecules having a thiolated aptamer are also provided.
摘要:
Embodiments of the present invention are directed to an improved chemical synthesis apparatus for performing chemical synthesis such as nuclei acid synthesis in a plurality of reaction wells or cells in an efficient manner. The apparatus employs dispenser heads that each include a cluster of nozzles which are fluidicly coupled to a plurality of reagent sources for dispensing different reagents through the single dispenser head. Because each dispenser head is capable of dispensing a plurality of different reagents, the apparatus can perform simultaneous synthesis in a plurality of cells at a high throughput without complex and elaborate control of movement of the dispenser heads relative to the cells.
