Amino-terminated organosilanes

Amino-terminated organosilanes were used to immobilize rifamycin B via its active carboxylic acid functionality leading to the formation of stable amide bonds between antibiotics and modified silica [7]. The organosilanes used were (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane or (3-aminopropyl)dimethylethoxysilane, and the procedure for preparation was as described in Section 2.2.1.1. Surface coverage data were not provided by the authors [7],...
