example 1

[0051] C-1 Stationary Phase

[0052] A 5% solution of trimethylchlorosilane in toluene is pumped at 10 μL / min for six hours through a 1 mm outer diameter×25 mm long multicapillary glass rod pierced with approximately 4400 capillaries of 10 μm diameter at 105° C. The multicapillary rod is rinsed with toluene, acetone and methanol, and dried with a nitrogen stream.

[0053] C-4 Stationary Phase

[0054] A 10% solution of butyldimethylchlorosilane in toluene is pumped at 40 μL / min for six hours through a 2 mm outer diameter×300 mm long multicapillary glass rod pierced with approximately 4600 capillaries of 25 μm diameter at 105° C. The multicapillary rod is rinsed with toluene, acetone and methanol, and dried with a nitrogen stream.

[0055] C-8 Stationary Phase

[0056] A 10% solution of octyltrichlorosilane in toluene is pumped at 50 μL / min for six hours through a 2.3 mm outer diameter×25 mm long multicapillary glass rod pierced with approximately 1400 capillaries of 40 μm diameter at 105° C. The multicapillary rod is rinsed with toluene, acetone and methanol, and dried with a nitrogen stream.

Abstract

A multicapillary sample preparation device, especially useful for handling biological samples, comprising a plurality of uniform capillary tubes coated with a stationary phase, and arranged in a monolithic element. The multicapillary device is suitable for attachment to a pipette, micropipette, syringe, or other analytical or sample preparation instrument.

Description

REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] This application claims benefit of U.S. patent application No. 10 / 955,377 filed Sep. 30, 2004, and U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60 / 507,474 filed Sep. 30, 2003.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] 1. Field of the Invention [0003] The present invention relates to a multicapillary sample preparation device especially useful for handling biological samples. In particular, the multicapillary device is suitable for use with a pipette, micropipette, syringe, or other similar analytical instrument. [0004] 2. Background Art [0005] Many biological samples are commonly separated by gel electrophoresis and analyzed by matrix assisted laser desorption / ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS). One disadvantage of these techniques, however, is that analysis is strongly affected by the presence of salts, buffers and low molecular weight organic compounds commonly used in the preparation of biological samples. In order to improve the sensitivity and s...
