title: One-pot preparation of a sulfamethoxazole functionalized affinity monolithic column for selective isolation and purification of trypsin.
abstract: A facile and efficient "one-pot" copolymerization strategy was used for the preparation of sulfonamide drug (SA) functionalized monolithic columns. Two novel SA-immobilized methacrylate monolithic columns, i.e. poly(GMA-SMX-co-EDMA) and poly(GMA-SAA-co-EDMA) were prepared by one-pot in situ copolymerization of the drug ligand (sulfamethoxazole (SMX) or sulfanilamide (SAA)), the monomer (glycidyl methacrylate, GMA) and the cross-linker (ethylene dimethacrylate, EDMA) within 100 μm i.d. capillaries under optimized polymerization conditions. The physicochemical properties and column performance of the fabricated monolithic columns were characterized by elemental analysis, scanning electron microscopy and micro-HPLC. Satisfactory column permeability, efficiency and separation performance were obtained on the optimized poly(GMA-SMX-co-EDMA) monolithic column for small molecules, such as a standard test mixture and eight aromatic ketones. Notably, it was found that the poly(GMA-SMX-co-EDMA) monolith showed a selective affinity to trypsin, while the poly(GMA-SAA-co-EDMA) monolith containing sulfanilamide did not exhibit such affinity at all. This research not only provides a novel monolith for the selective isolation and purification of trypsin, but it also offers the possibility to easily prepare novel drug functionalized methacrylate monoliths through a one-pot copolymerization strategy.
