Abstract

Abstract The invention discloses a glass fiber coated with a porous hydrophilic matrix material comprised of agarose which is derivatized to bind a suitable ligand or biological material. The glass fibers of the present invention are useful in removing contaminates in a chromatographic process. In one embodiment glass fibers have on their surface a coating comprising agarose and polymyxin B which coated glass fibers are useful for removing endotoxins in a bioseparation process.
