Provided are devices that include a polymeric separation medium configured to immobilize one or more constituents of interest in the polymeric separation medium and have an increased pore size upon application of an applied stimulus. Systems including the devices, as well as methods of using the devices, are also provided. Embodiments of the present disclosure find use in a variety of different applications, including detecting whether an analyte is present in a fluid sample.

A gas chromatography system can include a circulatory loop, a gas inlet positioned along the circulatory loop, a gas outlet positioned along the circulatory loop, a micro column positioned in line with the circulatory loop, and an in-line population sensor positioned in line with the circulatory loop. The in-line population sensor can be configured to detect changes in gas population. The gas inlet and gas outlet can be associated with a gas inlet valve and gas outlet valve, and configured to admit or withdraw gas from the circulatory loop, respectively. A gas sample can be circulated through the circulatory loop for at least one cycle, and a component of the gas sample can be detected using the in-line population sensor.

There is provided a method of identifying a resin for isolating or enriching a protein of interest using affinity chromatography. The method comprises the steps of: i) providing the three-dimensional structure of the protein of interest; ii) determining and/or calculating one or more parameters of the protein of interest in its two- and/or three-dimensional form; iii) determining and/or calculating one or more parameters of one or more resin in their two- and/or three-dimensional form; and iv) selecting a resin expected to bind complementarily to the protein of interest based upon one or more of the parameters of the protein of interest.
