Abstract
A novel dimercaptosuccinic acid-functionalized mesoporous alumina (DMSA-MA) is synthesized by the dicarboxylic acid groups of dimercaptosuccinic acid molecules coordinating to the Al3+ ions located in the mesostructure. The as-prepared DMSA-MA composites possess a large surface area of 91.17 m2/g as well as a uniform pore size and a high pore volume of 17.22 nm and 0.23 cm3/g, respectively. DMSA coating of mesostructures significantly enhanced their selectivity for glycoprotein adsorption through a powerful hydrophilic binding force, and the maximum adsorption capacity of immunoglobulin G (IgG) can reach 2298.6 mg g-1. The captured IgG could be lightly stripped from the DMSA-MA composites with an elution rate of 98.3% by using 0.5 wt % CTAB solution as the elution reagent. DMSA-MA is further employed as a sorbent for the enrichment of IgG heavy chain and light chain from human serum sample. SDS-PAGE assay results showed the obtained IgG with high purity compared to that of the standard solution of IgG.
