    摘要: 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.

    摘要: A method for making functionalized porous crosslinked polysaccharide gel coated structures used as liquid chromatography media is provided. The method includes impregnating a porous substrate with a room temperature stable aqueous polysaccharide solution containing water, 0.1% to 20% of a polysaccharide, 18% to 54% of a gel-inhibiting agent to prevent the gel from re-gelling, and 0.001% to 10% of an anionic fluorosurfactant for optimum solution coatability onto the substrate, each concentration is by total weight of the aqueous solution. Next water is evaporated from the coating, followed by exposing the dehydrated coating to a gelling agent thereby forming a porous polysaccharide gel coated substrate. Next the gel coated substrate is exposed to a crosslinking agent forming a porous crosslinked polysaccharide gel coated substrate. Next, the gel coated substrate is functionalized by contacting the porous polysaccharide gel coated substrate with sodium 3-bromopropanesulfonate, thereby attaching sulfopropyl ligands to the gel coated substrate, resulting in a functionalized porous absorptive polysaccharide gel coated chromatography structure. When the functionalized gel coated chromatography structure is used as liquid chromatography media, and a protein (e.g. lysozyme) containing solution contacts the media, the sulfopropyl ligands attached to the gel coated chromatography structure will bond to the protein, thereby removing the protein from the protein containg solution.

    摘要: Room temperature stable, non-gelling polysaccharide solutions such as agaroses, dextrans and cyclodextrans are made by the present invention. It has been found that by incorporating certain gel-inhibiting additives into an aqueous polysaccharide solution, the gel point is reduced or eliminated and the solution remains liquid at room temperature indefinitely. Additives that have been found to work include salts, such as lithium chloride and zinc chloride and bases, such as sodium hydroxide and lithium hydroxide. Mixtures of said salts and said bases can also be used with the same desired results. The composition of these solutions of the present idea can be further modified to include other additives, such as organic co-solvents or non-solvents, pH modifiers, surfactants or other polymers to customize the properties of the solution to improve the processability for the desired application and to form structures such as films, beads and coated porous substrates.
