This study presents an effective on-chip method for chiral analysis using an alumina gel-derived protein network in poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) microchannels. The developed method successfully separates enantiomers with reduced nonspecific adsorption, offering a platform for high-throughput screening.

Area of Science:

  • Analytical Chemistry
  • Separation Science
  • Biomolecular Engineering

Background:

  • Chiral analysis is crucial for pharmaceuticals and biochemical research.
  • Traditional methods often suffer from nonspecific adsorption and low efficiency.
  • Developing robust on-chip separation platforms is essential for high-throughput analysis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop an effective on-chip method for chiral analysis.
  • To create a stable protein-stationary phase within a poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) microchannel.
  • To achieve fast enantioseparation with reduced nonspecific adsorption.

Main Methods:

  • Chemical modification of PMMA microchannels using a synthesized copolymer with silane-functionalized scaffolds.
  • Formation of an alumina sol-gel layer for stable microstructure and biomolecule encapsulation.

  • Immobilization of bovine serum albumin to create a protein-stationary phase for electrophoresis.

    • Main Results:

    • Modified PMMA surfaces showed improved wettability (22° contact angle) and enhanced electroosmotic mobility (4.3 x 10⁻⁴ cm²/V·s) compared to untreated surfaces (73° and 1.9 x 10⁻⁴ cm²/V·s).
    • Stable and homogeneous immobilization of bovine serum albumin was achieved.
    • Efficient separation of D- and L-tryptophan enantiomers with a resolution of 1.57 was demonstrated under mild conditions.

    Conclusions:

    • The alumina gel-derived protein network on PMMA microchannels provides an effective platform for enantioseparation.
    • The method significantly reduces nonspecific adsorption, enhancing separation efficiency and speed.
    • This protocol has potential for high-throughput screening of chiral drugs and studying receptor interactions.
