Adsorption of human IgG on Cu(2+)-immobilized cellulose affinity membrane: preliminary study.
Immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography (IMAC) is widely used. Transition metal ions have a high affinity to some peptide sequences. We have studied the selective adsorption of human IgG from a mixture of albumin, gamma-globulin, fibrinogen, and IgG onto Cu(2+) ion-immobilized cellulose membrane. Although Cu(2+) ligand is selective to IgG, in general gamma-globulins also are adsorbed. The simplicity and lower cost of Cu(2+) ion-immobilized cellulose membranes may be useful for removing IgG from blood.
