Abstract: Insolubilized enzyme particulates are located on the upstream surface of a filtration layer of a filtering element which can be used in a cartridge filter. Employed in a recycling flow reaction system at relatively high flux rates, the cartridges are useful for conducting catalyzed chemical reactions of dissolved solutes, for example, esterifications, isomerizations, oxidations, reductions, and cyclizations.

Abstract: The invention provides a method of separating a biomacromolecule which comprises the steps of providing a separation system including a filter element which comprises a composite filtration medium, the composite filtration medium comprising a filtration layer on the upstream surface of which are located insoluble stationary phase particulates, the particulates being capable of binding to a biomacromolecule or class of biomacromolecules, a reservoir containing a solution mixture comprising at least one biomacromolecule as solute, and a pump and associated tubing to form a closed loop assembly, and recirculation pumping the solution mixture through the filter cartridge so as to bind the at least one biomacromolecule to the stationary phase particulate so as to form a biomacromolecule:stationary phase particulate product.

Abstract: Supports having azlactone-functional surfaces, adduct supports prepared from such azlactone-functional supports, and methods of preparing both are disclosed. Azlactone functionality is introduced to surfaces of a pre-existing support in a manner which retains useful physical and chemical characteristics of the pre-existing support. One method involves exposing surfaces with high energy radiation to generate free radical reaction sites on the surfaces and causing azlactone-functional moieties to react with the free radical reaction sites. Another method involves coating surfaces with azlactone monomers, crosslinking monomers, and optionally co-monomers and polymerizing the monomers to form a polymerized coating of azlactone-functionality on the surfaces. Another method involves dispersion polymerization of azlactone-functional moieties to produce azlactone-functional particles within pores and interstices of a pre-existing support.

Abstract: Polycyclic diamines, incorporating a basic framework similar to [3.3.3]propellane, and derivatives of the basic polycyclic diamines and a process for preparing same are provided. The diamines are prepared by subjecting bispyridine compounds to electroreductive coupling in an acidic solution. The polycyclic diamines and derivatives thereof are useful as chain extenders, crosslinking agents and curatives in various polymer systems.

Abstract: Mono O-hydroxyalkylated derivatives of 1,1-dihydroperfluorinated or 1H,1-alkylperfluorinated alcohols are prepared by reacting the alcohols with alkylene carbonates at a temperature of at least 60.degree. C. in the presence of a one- or two-part catalyst. The catalyst is a nitrogenous base, optionally in combination with a tetraalkylammonium halide. The O-hydroxyalkylated derivatives are useful non-ionic surfactants and emulsifiable compounds for fire extinguishing systems.
