Sulfate ion-exchange

Initially, the antibodies should be purified prior to prepare the immunoaffinity column. Precipitation with ammonium sulfate, ion-exchange chromatography, gel filtration chraoma-tography or affinity chromatography may be employed with the aim of antibody purification. Activated beads which are coated with bacterial proteins A or G may be used as the support material. Some parameters may be changed for the elution of the sample solution for example the ionic conditions of mobile phase may be changed or chaotropic buffers may be used [11].
