A method to prepare uniform populations of macroscopic beads containing pores of at least 0.1 microns diameter is described. The beads consist essentially of a copolymer of a monoethylenically unsaturated monomer and a crosslinking polyethylenically unsaturated monomer, said resulting copolymer optionally being derivatized with functional groups, linking moieties, and/or affinity ligands. The macroporous beads are obtained by utilizing, as a porogen in the polymerization reaction, porous inorganic particles which have been preabsorbed with a blowing agent. The blowing agent is not activated until after the polymerization takes place; when the blowing agent is activated, the organic polymer which isolates the inorganic porogen particles from each other in the bead is destroyed. Upon subsequent dissolution of the inorganic porogen, a network of pores throughout the organic copolymer-formed particle is formed. The resulting beads are useful in a variety of chromatographic, analytical and biomedical techniques.
