## Abstract The avidin/biotin system was applied as a general mediator in the adsorption/desorption or immobilization of biologically active macromolecules to solid supports. In this context, model biotinylated proteins (lectins and antibodies) were attached to avidinβcoupled Sepharose. As examples

β¦ Synopsis
A st&le folk acid aEinity gel has been developed for the puritication of nanogmms of protein that bind folic acid or its derivatives. The affinity gel was prepared by Ant coupling folk. acid covalently to bovine serum albumin, followed by covalent coupling of the albumin to p-benzoquinone-activated
Sephaiuse. Mer the albumin-folk acid complex was formed, it was treated with charcoal to remove ionicalty bound folate which would otherwise elute from the gel and decmase the recovery of the binding protein. Thep-benzoquinone activation resulted in a more stable binding of the albumin to the Sepharose.

A new purification procedure for spinach leaf fructose-l,6-bisphosphatase is proposed, which includes the use of affinity chromatography on mercaptoethylamine-Sepharose. A homogeneous preparation of the enzyme can be obtained in 48 hr, with a specific activity of 67 U/rag and a yield of 23%. The met
Two methods for the separation of a-fetoprotein (AFP) and albumin using (A) affinity chromatography on Blue Sepharose CL-6B and (B) ampholyte displacement chromatography are described. The heterogeneity of immunoreactive human AFP is demonstrated by ampholyte displacement chromatography; possibly se
A simple chromatographic procedure is described for removal of strongly bound ligands from holoproteins whose ligand sites are constructed by an NADlike domain. Application of such a holoprotein solution to a blue dextran-sepharose chromatographic column equilibrated with a low ionic strength solven
