Abstract
Methods and compositions for manufacturing large-scale quantities of conjugatable peptides/peptoids/polymers/nucleic acids and conjugatable proteins, as well as hybrid materials consisting of synthetic and unnatural amino acids, glycopeptides, proteoglycans, and other molecular modifications are disclosed, for a variety of purposes including rapid antidote and vaccine applications in biodefense, therapeutics, diagnostics, theranostics, thin films, multilayered assemblies, biofilms, sensors, drug delivery vehicles, gene delivery vehicles, gene editing vehicles, staged release compounds, and the like.
Claims24
An apparatus for generating a conjugatable polymer, comprising (i) a plurality of reservoirs for holding a reaction fluid, (ii) a conduit for transporting the reaction fluid to a reaction chamber, the reaction chamber having a solid support, wherein a polymer product is synthesized on the solid support, (iii) a conduit for transporting the reaction fluid from the reaction chamber to a used reagent collection chamber, (iv) a conduit for transporting the reaction fluid from the used reagent collection chamber to a distillation component, the distillation component having a heating element, and (v) a recycled reagent collection chamber.
