Abstract

A chromatographic material including a substrate having a surface and having a polymeric layer covalently bound to the surface; the polymeric layer comprising polymer molecules covalently attached to the surface of the substrate, each polymer molecule being attached to the surface via multiple siloxane bonds and each polymer molecule being connected to one or more functionalizing compounds that each comprise a functional group, wherein the polymeric layer is formed by covalently attaching polymer molecules to the surface of the substrate via multiple siloxane bonds, each polymer molecule containing multiple first reactive groups, and reacting the first reactive groups of the attached polymer molecules with at least one functionalizing compound that comprises a second reactive group that is reactive with the first reactive groups and that further comprises a functional group. Preferred conditions of reacting the polymer with the substrate include elevated temperature and reduced pressure.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method of separating a sample, the method comprising:
flowing a mobile phase containing the sample, the sample comprising one or more aminoglycoside antibiotics, through a chromatographic column to chromatographically separate the one or more aminoglycoside antibiotics from each other or from one or more components of the sample, wherein the column is packed with a chromatographic material, the chromatographic material comprising:
a silica substrate having a surface; and
a polymeric layer covalently bound to the surface,
the polymeric layer comprising polymer molecules, each polymer molecule being attached to the surface via multiple siloxane bonds and each polymer molecule being connected to one or more functionalizing compounds that each comprise a functional group, wherein the functional group comprises C14-C22 alkyl, each polymer molecule containing multiple first reactive groups, and each polymer molecule containing multiple silyl groups for forming the multiple siloxane bonds,
wherein the multiple silyl groups are distributed along a length of each of the polymer molecules, and
wherein the polymeric layer is formed by covalently attaching the polymer molecules to the surface of the substrate via the multiple silyl groups distributed along the length of each of said polymer molecules and reacting the first reactive groups of the attached polymer molecules with the one or more functionalizing compounds, wherein the one or more functionalizing compounds each comprise a second reactive group, wherein the second reactive group is reactive with the first reactive group, and
wherein the pH of the mobile phase is 1 or less.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the functional group is C14-C22 straight chain alkyl.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first reactive groups comprise olefinic groups.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first reactive groups comprise a member selected from the group consisting of vinyl groups and allyl groups.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein all of the first reactive groups are vinyl groups.

6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein there is a substantially uniform distance between adjacent first reactive groups of the polymer.

7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the second reactive group comprises a member selected from the group consisting of an olefinic group and a thiol group.

8. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the second reactive group comprises a member selected from the group consisting of a vinyl group and an allyl group.

9. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the polymer molecule is based on a vinylsiloxane.

10. The method according to claim 9 , wherein the vinylsiloxane polymer has a formula I:

wherein n is an integer from 3 to 100, R 1 and R 2 are independently selected from the group consisting of: alkoxy, hydroxyl and halo.

11. The method according to claim 10 , wherein R 1 and R 2 are independently selected from the group consisting of: methoxy, ethoxy and hydroxyl.

12. The method according to claim 10 , wherein the vinylsiloxane polymer is a co-polymer.

13. The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more aminoglycoside antibiotics is selected from the group consisting of gentamicin, spectinomycin, kanamycin, ribostamycin, streptomycin, apramycin, paromomycin, dihydrostreptomycin, neomycin, netilmycin, tobramycin, amikacin, and arbekacin.
