Sulfonamide Bonded Hydrophilic Coatings

US Patent:
5389449, Feb 14, 1995
Filed:
Jan 5, 1993
Appl. No.:
8/000467
Inventors:
Noubar B. Afeyan - Brookline MA
Hossein K. Hodjat - Jamaica Plain MA
Laszlo Varady - Malden MA
Assignee:
PerSeptive Biosystems, Inc. - Cambridge MA
International Classification:
B01D 1508, B05D 310, C08F 832, C08F 838
US Classification:
428523
Abstract:
A method of derivatizing a chromatography matrix having a hydrophobic surface involves reacting the hydrophobic surface with a halosulfonating agent to produce a significant amount of halosulfone groups covalently bonded onto the surface. Sulfonamide bonds then are formed between these halosulfone groups and a group of amine functions on a polyaminated polymer to produce a pellicular anion exchange layer covalently bonded to the surface. The resulting layer is stable in the absence of cross-links between the molecules of the polyaminated polymer.
