METHODS AND COMPOUNDS FOR FORMING MONOLITHIC TITANIA, OPTIONALLY BIOMOLECULE DOPED, WITH CONTROLLED MORPHOLOGY USING BIOCOMPATIBLE SOL-GEL PROCESSES

摘要

The present invention includes polyol modified titanium compounds, their preparation and use in methods to make biomolecule compatible monolithic titania. The invention also includes the use of the biomolecule compatible monolithic titania in bioanalytic applications, for example in biosensors, chromatographic columns, microarrays and bioaffinity columns.
