Abstract
Poly(lauryl methacrylate-co-ethylene dimethacrylate) and poly(styrene-co-divinylbenzene) stationary phases in monolithic format have been prepared by thermally initiated free radical polymerization within polyimide chips featuring channels having a cross-section of 200micromx200microm and a length of 6.8cm. These chips were then used for the separation of a mixture of proteins including ribonuclease A, myoglobin, cytochrome c, and ovalbumin, as well as peptides. The separations were monitored by UV adsorption. Both the monolithic phases based on methacrylate and on styrene chemistries enabled the rapid baseline separation of most of the test mixtures. Best performance was achieved with the styrenic monolith leading to fast baseline separation of all four proteins in less than 2.5min. The in situ monolith preparation process affords microfluidic devices exhibiting good batch-to-batch and injection-to-injection repeatability.Entities:
