Adsorption equilibrium in immuno-affinity chromatography with polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies
Abstract:
The effects of pH, ionic strength, anion species, and antibody concentration on the adsorption equilibrium between immobilized antibodies and antigens were studied by use of anti-BSA, anti-HSA, anti-BlgG, and monoclonal anti-HSA coupled to Sepharose 4B. The polyclonal antibodies possessed average binding affinities of the order of 10(8)M(-1), and the heterogeneity was accounted for by assuming a normal distribution of the free energy of antibody-antigen combination. The monoclonal antibody, on the other hand, showed a homogeneous affinity of the Langmuir type. Bound antigens could be eluted by lowering pH or adding a chaotropic anion, and their purity was very high. The antibody ligand was sufficiently stable for repeated use.
