Polyethylenimine bound chromatographic packing

A covalently bound, non-crosslinked polyethylenimine chromatographic column packing consisting essentially of the reaction product of particulate silica gel having an average particle diameter of from about 3 to about 70 microns and an average pore size of from about 50 to about 1000 Angstrom units with polyethyleniminopropyl trimethoxy silane having an average molecular weight of from about 400 to about 1800, wherein the term non-crosslinked means that the imino and amino groups on adjacent covalently bound polyethylenimine moieties are not crosslinked, or reacted with a crosslinking agent, to form a polymeric layer.

A chromatographic column suitable for liquid chromatography packed with covalently bound, non-crosslinked polyethylenimine reaction product of particulate silica gel having an average particle diameter of from about 3 to about 70 microns and an average pore size of from about 50 to about 1000 Angstrom units, or particulate controlled pore glass having an average particle diameter of from about 37 to about 177 microns and an average pore size of from about 40 to about 1000 Angstrom units, with polyethyleniminopropyl trimethoxy silane having an average molecular weight of from about 400 to about 1800, wherein the term non-crosslinked means that the imino and amino groups on adjacent covalently bound polyethylenimine moieties are not crosslinked, or reacted with a crosslinking agent, to form a polymeric layer.
