Monolithic methacrylate polymeric sorbents: Development of methods for chemical modification of the surface for the subsequent bioaffine functionalization

Copolymers containing aldehyde, succinimidyl carbonate, and imidazolecarbamate groups were prepared by polymer-analogous transformations of epoxy groups of a macroporous monolithic polymeric support derived from glycidyl methacrylate and ethylene glycol dimethacyrlate. The effect of certain parameters on the course of the copolymer modification and immobilization of a protein on the surface of the polymeric support was studied. The possibility of using the matrices obtained for development of biorecognizing systems was examined.
