Abstract

A polymer-based PLOT column prepared by in situ copolymerization of a functional monomer, which usually contains the retentive chemistries, and a crosslinking monomer, which enhances the strength of the polymer matrix, is disclosed. Styrenic based monomers such as styrene and divinylbenzene or meth / acrylic based monomers such as butyl or stearyl methacrylate and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate, are preferred. Columns of the invention can be prepared in a robust fashion with a very narrow i.d., e.g., 5-15 μm. Thus, they are suitable for commercial use in ultratrace LC / MS proteomic analysis. Columns according to the invention are characterized by high resolving power, high column-to-column reproducibility and relatively high loading capacity. When these columns are coupled on-line with, e.g., ESI-MS detection, the resulting systems provide high sensitivity for analysis of complex proteomic samples, even down to the low attomole to sub-attomole level.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0001] This application claims the benefit under 35 U.S.C. § 119(e) of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60 / 815,314, filed on Jun. 21, 2006, the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference herein.STATEMENT REGARDING FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH OR DEVELOPMENT

[0002] Part of the work leading to this invention was carried out with United States Government support provided under a grant from the National Institutes of Health, Grant No. GM-15847. Therefore, the U.S. Government has certain rights in this invention.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0003] Electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) has become a routine tool in proteomic studies, primarily due to its high sensitivity, broad dynamic range, and versatility for online coupling with capillary high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)1-3. High-resolution separation prior to MS detection allows complex mixtures to be characterized by extending both the dynamic range and detection...
