Abstract: A separation material includes a matrix that is bound to a saccharide, enabling the separation from a liquid of substances that selectively bind the saccharide. A method for preparing the separation material and a method for separating substances from a liquid that selectively bind a saccharide of the separation material are also described. A device employs the separation material for separating from a liquid substances that selectively bind to the saccharide of the separation material.

Abstract: A separation material includes a saccharide bound via a linker to a matrix for enabling the separation from a liquid of substances that selectively bind to saccharide moieties. A method for preparing the material, a method for separating from a liquid substances that selective bind to saccharides, and a device including the separation material are also disclosed.

Abstract: An immobilized enzyme comprises a solid support, an enzyme linked to the solid support and a spacer for coupling the enzyme to the solid support. A method for the production of immobilized enzymes comprises: providing a solid support having amino-functional groups coupled to the support surface; covalently coupling the amino-functional groups with a thermally labile radical initiator; and, contacting the support surface with a solution of polymerizable monomers. The polymerizable monomers comprise functional groups which do not take part in radical polymerization, under conditions where thermally initiated graft copolymerization of the monomers takes place, to form polymer chains on the surface of the support. If the polymer chains do not already comprise primary amino-functional groups, the method further comprises transforming the functional groups in the polymer chains into groups comprising primary amino-functional groups.
