Selective bioassays for high performance liquid chromatography
This technology us used as the stationary phase in HPLC, featuring a novel polymeric fiber support that is modified with a series of bi-functional lipid molecules. The molecules are composed of anchoring “legs” which can be of varying hydrophobicity, from alkanes to polyethylene glycol chains. The functional head groups be customized to possess functional groups such as NH3, COOH, or biotin. The lipids can can be further modified with virtually an unlimited number of head groups, chosen such that the target species in the mobile phase can have varying degrees of affinity.
• Customizable lipid head groups allow for control of solute interacting in chromatography
• Micron-sized channels that span entire length of column allowing for faster flow rates and minimal backpressure
• High surface area on polymers, improving mass transfer
