Abstract:
A chromatography device having a longitudinal axis of bulk liquid flow, the chromatography device comprising:a substrate; anda plurality of collocated monolith support structures, each having a first end, a second end, and a wall therebetween,whereinthe first end of each collocated monolith support structure is congruent with or in contact with the substrate,the plurality of collocated monolith support structures are dimensioned and oriented in a uniform two-dimensional array defining a plurality of interconnected channels bound by the walls of the collocated monolith support structures,wherein the plurality of interconnected channels are non-contiguous across two adjacent collocated monolith support structures in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the chromatography device, andthe walls of the collocated monolith support structures comprise interactive surfaces for effecting chromatographic separation of an analyte.
