Background:

Protein antigen isolation is crucial for immunological studies.
Immunoaffinity chromatography offers high specificity for antigen purification.

Purpose of the Study:

To describe a method for isolating soluble or membrane-bound protein antigens.
To detail the use of immunoaffinity chromatography for single protein elution.

Main Methods:

Antibodies are covalently coupled to Sepharose beads.
Antigens are captured by immobilized antibodies on the chromatographic matrix.
Elution is achieved using high- or low-pH buffers or detergents like octyl beta-D-glucoside.

Main Results:
