Abstract
Abstract A strong anion exchange composition useful in monophosphate nucleotide isomer separations is comprised of an inert porous particle having a silyl alkyl ammonium compound fixedly attached by a covalent silicon-oxygen-silicon bond to the surface thereof. A process for synthesizing the strong anion exchange composition in an aqueous solvent is disclosed together with methods for separation of monophosphate nucleotide isomers, highly phophorylated nucleotides and aldopentose carbohydrates using a column packed with this strong anion exchange composition.
