Abstract

Abstract Chromatographic supports are disclosed as are methods and apparatus for preparing the same. The support includes an inorganic support matrix that is capable of reacting with silanols, a stationary phase, and an intermediate silane coupling agent having a silicon functional group capable of bonding to the support surface and an organic functional group capable of bonding to the stationary phase. The inorganic support matrix is preferably controlled porosity glass or silica while the coupling agent may include a simple carbohydrate, a carbohydrate derivative, or a polymer to which the stationary phase is attached. A plurality of chromatographic supports and stationary phases are disclosed and two methods of bonding of stationary phases to supports are also disclosed. In addition, apparatus including a fluidized bed is also disclosed to prepare supports.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 75 words
A chromatographic support, comprising: an inorganic support matrix having a surface portion; a stationary phase for partitioning solutes, said stationary phase being a glycidyl ether selected from the group consisting of methanol, ethanol, propanol, hexanol, tetradecanol, phenol, and p-nitrophenol, a nucleophilic functional group, and a leaving group; and a silane coupling agent having one group for bonding to said surface portion of said support matrix and a second group for bonding to the stationary phase.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 75 words
A chromatographic support, comprising: an inorganic support matrix having a surface portion; a stationary phase for partitioning solutes, said stationary phase being a glycidyl ether selected from the group consisting of methanol, ethanol, propanol, hexanol, tetradecanol, phenol, and p-nitrophenol, a nucleophilic functional group, and a leaving group; and a silane coupling agent having one group for bonding to said surface portion of said support matrix and a second group for bonding to the stationary phase.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 30 words
The chromatographic support of claim 1 wherein said stationary phase contains a nucleophilic functional group selected from the group consisting of OH, NH, HSO 3 , and HPO 4 .
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 24 words
