Production of polymer monolithic capillary columns with integrated gold nano-particle modified segments for on-capillary extraction

A number of polymer butyl methacrylate-co-ethylene dimethacrylate and lauryl methacrylate-co-ethylene glycol dimethacrylate monolithic phases within capillary columns were produced with integrated gold nano-particle (GNP) modified segments for on-capillary extraction and subsequent separation of biomolecules. Photo-masking and photo-grafting techniques were used to produce an aminated zone at the start of the polymer monolithic columns, which...
