The present disclosure relates to a method of separating a compound of interest, particularly unsaturated compound(s) of interest, from a mixture. The compound is separated using a column having a chromatographic stationary phase material for various different modes of chromatography containing a first substituent and a second substituent. The first substituent minimizes compound retention variation over time under chromatographic conditions. The second substituent chromatographically and selectively retains the compound by incorporating one or more aromatic, polyaromatic, heterocyclic aromatic, or polyheterocyclic aromatic hydrocarbon groups, each group being optionally substituted with an aliphatic group.

In some examples, the present disclosure can include a chromatographic system having a chromatographic column having a stationary phase with a chromatographic substrate containing silica, metal oxide, an inorganic-organic hybrid material, a group of block copolymers, or a combination thereof.

In one aspect, the present invention provides a chromatographic stationary phase material for various different modes of chromatography represented by Formula 1: [X](W).sub.a(Q).sub.b(T).sub.c (Formula 1). X can be a high purity chromatographic core composition having a surface comprising a silica core material, metal oxide core material, an inorganic-organic hybrid material or a group of block copolymers thereof. W can be absent and/or can include hydrogen and/or can include a hydroxyl on the surface of X. Q can be a functional group that minimizes retention variation over time (drift) under chromatographic conditions utilizing low water concentrations. T can include one or more hydrophilic, polar, ionizable, and/or charged functional groups that chromatographically interact with the analyte. Additionally, b and c can be positive numbers, with the ratio 0.05?(b/c)?100, and a?0.

Method for separating the diamondoids by liquid chromatography from a sample of iso-alkanes and cycloalkanes, or from a mixture of organic compounds, this method comprising introducing the sample into a column comprising a stationary phase comprising a material capable of forming inclusion complexes with the diamondoids, eluting with an eluent, and collecting the eluted fraction.

Ligands and methods for selectively binding hypermethylated DNA from a sample. The ligands include a CG-region binding molecule-conjugated resin derived from the aminoglycoside antibiotic amikacin. Furthermore, the CG-region binding molecule may be conjugated to the resin with a crosslinker and/or may be modified with one or more of long chain and short chain alkyl, aryl, piperazinyl, piperidyl, and pyrrolidyl groups. Such ligands are used in methods for contacting a sample to thereby selectively bind hypermethylated DNA.

Novel compositions for removing impurities such as, protein aggregates, from a sample containing a protein of interest, e.g., an antibody. Such compositions can be used prior to the virus filtration step during protein purification, to remove aggregates and protect the virus filter from fouling, therefore improving virus filter capacity. A porous solid support including a co-polymer having at least two monomers, wherein at least one of the monomers comprises acrylamide and at least a second monomer comprises a hydrophobic binding group, where the solid support selectively binds protein aggregates, thereby to separate the monomeric protein of interest from the protein aggregates. The method can be performed under neutral to high pH and high conductivity conditions.

A material for reverse phase chromatography comprises surface modifying apolar and charged groups bound to a solid support, said charged groups being present in amounts of about 0.25 to about 22% of the surface modifying groups, or in amounts of about 0.01 mol/m.sup.2 to 0.8 mol/m.sup.2 referred to the surface of the solid support for a material with a total amount of surface modifying groups of 3.6 mol/m.sup.2. Such material and suitable purification conditions for active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) like peptides can be evaluated by (a) determining the isoelectric point (pI) of the API of interest, (b) choosing a pH in a range where the solid phase material is stable, (c) determining the difference pIpH and (d) if the difference pIpH is positive, choosing an anion exchange (AIEX) material, or if the difference pIpH is negative, choosing an cation exchange (CIEX) material.
