background: among diverse protein purification systems, affinity chromatography is the most attractive one in the purification process of coagulation factors. coagulation factor vii is a plasma serine protease that has a significant role in natural human hemostasis and its recombinant form such as aryoseventm, has been applied in clinical treatment of bleeding disorders. immunoaffinity chromato...

a series of sorbents containing various amounts of borate groups were prepared by chemical immobilization ofp-aminoethylphenylboric acid on a copolymer- treated organosilane spacer glass plates. it was found thatbaker's yeast cells selectively adhered to these supports. yeast cells stained with procion red he-3b formeddenser and more stable layer on the copolymer-grafted supports compared onto ...

in this work, experimental kinetics data of methane hydrate decomposition at temperatures ranging from 272.15 to 276.15 k and at pressures ranging from 10 to 30 bars were modeled by using chemical affinity. this model proposed a macroscopic model which is independent of any intermediate mechanism like heat or mass transfer. the results show there is good agreement with experimental data. also t...

in this study escherichia coli de3 containing expression vector (pet21a) with cloned persian sturgeon growth hormone (psgh) gene was grown in 10 ml lb broth on a 150 rpm shaker, at the temperature of 37 °c. at the late log phase (determined by od standard curve) 100 μl isopropyl β-d-1-thiogalactopyranoside (iptg) was added for induction of gh synthesis. samples were taken every 2 hours and afte...

the purification of biomolecules is a necessary step in many biochemical researches. in this regard, developments of convenient, specific and low cost methods of purification are of particular interest. given the human hemoglobin (hb) affinity toward some charged carbohydrates, interaction of this molecule with human chorionic gonadotropin (hcg) which is a glycoprotein hormone containing sialic...

introduction: the major histocompatibility complex (mhc) is a group of cell surface proteins that are essential for recognizing foreign molecules in human and other mammals. the physiologic function of mhc molecules is the presentation of peptides to t cells. in this study, we evaluated the purification of a class ii mhc molecule (hla-dr) from a human burkitt′s lymphoma cell line; daudi. materi...

the efficacy of activation methods and coupling were studied in the context of performance in batch and fixed bed binding experiments utilizing cell culture fluids or blood plasma as feedstock. conclusions were drawn regarding selection of solid phase according to pore size, rigidity, ph stability, chemistry of derivation and activation, and gross concentration of immobilized ligand required fo...

in this study we produced and purified a high titer of specific and high affin¬ity fab fragments of anti-digoxin antibody. immunization of rabbits with a conju¬gate of the cardiac glycoside digoxin, coupled by a periodate oxidation method to the amino group of lysine in bovine serum albumin resulted in the production of this type of high titer digoxin-specific antibodies with exceptionally high...

two sialic acid specific lectins episesarma tetragonum agglutinin–1 and 2 were purified from the hemolymph of the mangrove crab, episesarma tetragonum . the major lectin was purified using cnbr-activated sepharose 4b conjugated to fetuin. n-acetyl glucosamine containing buffer was used for elution. the hemagglutination activity of purified lectin was inhibited by glycoproteins containing siaα, ...

polymorphisms in the β subunit of the high affinity receptor for ige (fcεriβ) and interferon-γ (ifn-γ) genes may influence the risk of asthma. however, the results in asian population are still debatable. we performed a meta-analysis to ascertain the association between the fcεriβ e237g, fcεriβ -109c/t, and ifn-γ 874t/a polymorphisms and asthma in an asian population. databases including pubmed...
