Abstract

A protein A affinity chromatographic medium based on porous silica modified with phosphorylcholine (PC) groups and amino groups (PNSP) was synthesized. The PC groups functioned as suppressors of non-specific protein adsorption. Recombinant protein A was bound to the amino groups on PNSP with a glutaraldehyde used as a spacer (PNSP-PA). The PC groups and amino groups were immobilized on porous-silica particles using two silane coupling reagents, PC-bound silane, and 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane. After optimizing various factors in the synthetic process, the resultant protein A medium showed improvements in non-specific protein adsorption, dynamic binding capacity, and chemical stability under basic conditions compared with conventional protein A affinity media.
