Description
Summary:Procedure for the ligand-exchange chromatography of amino acids on copper-, cobalt- and zinc-Chelex 100 have been examined. Ligand exchange on the copper complex affords a simple and rapid method for the removal of amino acids (except for aspartic and glutamic acids) from dilute solutions. The influence of the pH on the binding of amino acids to the metal complex was also studied. The bound amino acids could be eluted with ammonium hydroxide which also causes a slight metal leakage. Chromatography on cobalt- and zinc-Chelex 100 showed that only the basic amino acids were quantitatively attached to these complexes at pH 8.3–9.5, wereas the others were predominantly excluded. This procedure can be used for the selective concentration and removal of basic amino acids in the presence of other amino acids.
