Two novel polymeric monoliths for anion-exchange capillary liquid chromatography of proteins were prepared in a single step by a simple photoinitiated copolymerization of 2-(diethylamino)ethyl methacrylate and polyethylene glycol diacrylate (PEGDA), or copolymerization of 2-(acryloyloxy)ethyl trimethylammonium chloride and PEGDA, in the presence of selected porogens. The resulting monoliths contained functionalities of diethylaminoethyl (DEAE) as a weak anion-exchanger and quaternary amine as a strong anion-exchanger, respectively. An alternative weak anion-exchange monolith with DEAE functionalities was also synthesized by chemical modification after photoinitiated copolymerization of glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) and PEGDA. Important physical and chromatographic properties of the synthesized monoliths were characterized. The dynamic binding capacities of the three monoliths (24 mg/mL. 56 mg/mL and 32 mg/mL Of column volume, respectively) were comparable or superior to Values that have been reported for Various other monoliths. Chromatographic performance was also similar to that provided by a modified poly(GMA-ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) monolith. Separation of standard proteins was achieved under gradient elution conditions using these monolithic columns. Peak capacities of 34, 58 and 36 proteins were obtained with analysis times of 20-30 min. This work represents a successful attempt to prepare functionalized monoliths via direct copolymerization of monomers with desired functionalities. Compared to earlier publications, additional Surface modifications were avoided and the PEGDA crosslinker helped to improve the biocompatibility of the monolithic backbone. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.
