Abstract
Ligand functionalized substrates, methods of making ligand functionalized substrates, and methods of using functionalized substrates are disclosed.
Claims23
A method of separating a target biological species from a fluid comprising contacting the fluid with a ligand-functionalized polymer comprising:
- a water soluble or water dispersible aminopolymer functionalized with guanidinyl groups;
- whereby a complex comprising the functionalized substrate and the target biological species is formed, and separating the complex;
- wherein said target biological species selected from biomacromolecules and microbiological species.
