Quantitative binding studies of a monoclonal antibody to immobilized protein-A.
Binding constants and column capacities are important factors for evaluating an affinity chromatography system. Scatchard plots based on classical equilibrium binding have been used to demonstrate how association constants and column capacities can be computed from simple binding experiments and a commercial computer program. The analysis has been demonstrated on a monoclonal antibody type IgG-1 Kappa against Serratia marcescens nuclease and a commercial protein-A column, Prosep-A. Additional analyses were performed with the same antibody and other protein-A affinity systems and the different binding constants and column capacities obtained confirmed the value of the analysis for evaluating an affinity system.
