Irreversible adsorption of bovine serum albumin onto porous polymer resins is examined by a pulse injection method. The experimental results are theoretically analyzed by a model based on the assumption that there exist three kinds of binding sites with different binding rates, which are considered to exist in the vicinity of the outer periphery surface, the inner surface of macropore, and the micropore, or center part, of particles. The three kinds of adsorption rates are also evaluated by a batch method and are nearly equal to the corresponding kinetic parameters by this method. The amount of BSA bound irreversibly to the resins is independent of the protein concentration and the flow rate examined, which suggests that protein molecules penetrate into pores of resins and occupy almost all the effective binding sites in the resins. The total amount of bound BSA shows a pH dependence with a maximum near the isoelectric point of BSA, and the amount of BSA bound at the slowest rate is most largely influenced by pH.
