Demonstration and partial purification of lactoperoxidase from human colostrum

A peroxidase with stability, chromatographic and immunoreactive properties similar to that of bovine lactoperoxidase has been partly purified from human colostrum. Hydrophobic interaction chromatography on Phenyl-Sepharose C1–4B gave a 10-fold purification with an apparent recovery of about 45%. The...

Description
Summary:A peroxidase with stability, chromatographic and immunoreactive properties similar to that of bovine lactoperoxidase has been partly purified from human colostrum. Hydrophobic interaction chromatography on Phenyl-Sepharose C1–4B gave a 10-fold purification with an apparent recovery of about 45%. The enzyme was quantitatively and specifically adsorbed to beads of anti-lactoperoxidase (bovine)-Protein A-Sepharose. No adsorption of the enzyme was observed on immunoadsorbent columns prepared with high-titre polyclonal antibodies raised against human myeloperoxidase and human eosinophile peroxidase.
