The adsorption of transition metal, lanthanide, and actinide ions to avotransferrin (conalbumin) immobilized to sepharose (via the cyanogen bromide method) has been examined. Adsorption of ions as a function of time and adsorption isotherms at pH 8 have been determined and analyzed using the Freundlich model, distribution coefficients between the pH vales 2 and 9 have been measured. The results indicate that immobilization of the protein has little effect on its interactions with metal ions compared with the protein in solution, and important prerequisite for use of this matrix in metalprotein affinity metal homatography (MAMC).
