Abstract

A protocol is described for the preparation of lectin affinity chromatography columns using purified lectins and preactivated matrices. A general method is given for the purification of glycoproteins on immobilized Con A. Methods for immobilizing Con A on CDI agarose, Affi-Gel 15, and carbonyldiimidazole-activated agarose are described.

Three-dimensional porous nano-hydroxyapatite@gelatin composite as efficient adsorbent for uranyl ion removal from low-level radioactive wastewater.

The contamination of water resources by uranyl (UO22+) ions poses significant environmental and health risks, requiring the development of efficient and sustainable remediation strategies. Adsorption-based techniques have emerged as promising approaches in the field of UO22+ removal, but the design of cost-effective, high-capacity, and environmentally friendly adsorbents remains challenging. In this study, a three-dimensional porous nano-hydroxyapatite@gelatin (nHAP@Ge) composite was synthesized through glutaraldehyde cross-linking, combining the structural stability of Ge with the high uranium affinity of nHAP. The optimized nHAP@Ge, with a nHAP:Ge mass ratio of 1:0.5, exhibited exceptional UO22+ removal efficiency (97 %), along with high adsorption capacity (364.03 mg/g). Systematic characterizations using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) methods revealed that the porous structure and surface functional groups (-OH, Ca2+, and PO43-) of the material synergistically contributed to binding UO22+ species. Furthermore, the incorporation of nHAP into the Ge framework resulted in enhanced thermal stability while significantly improving the UO22+ adsorption performance. This work presents a scalable, eco-friendly, and recyclable strategy for the effective treatment of uranium-contaminated water, with potential applications in nuclear wastewater treatment and environmental remediation.

Experimental and theoretical study of the adsorption behavior and mass transfer kinetics of propranolol enantiomers on cellulase protein as the selector.

The thermodynamics and mass transfer kinetics of the retention of the R and S enantiomers of propranolol were investigated on a system comprising an acetic acid buffer solution as the mobile phase and the protein cellobiohydrolase I immobilized on silica as the stationary phase. The bi-Langmuir isotherm model fitted best to each set of single-component isotherm data. The monolayer capacity of the nonchiral type of adsorption sites was 22.9 mM. For the chiral type of sites, it was 0.24 mM for the R enantiomer and 0.64 mM for the S enantiomer. Peak tailing was observed, even at very low concentrations allowing operation of the low-capacity chiral sites under linear conditions. This tailing can be explained on the basis of heterogeneous mass transfer kinetics. At higher concentrations, which are often used in analytical applications, the isotherms on the chiral sites no longer have a linear behavior, and peak tailing is consequently more pronounced. Under those conditions, peak tailing originates from the combined effect of heterogeneous thermodynamics and heterogeneous mass transfer kinetics. These complex phenomena are explained and modeled using the transport-dispersive model with a solid film linear driving force model modified to account for heterogeneous mass transfer kinetics. The rate coefficient of the mass transfer kinetics was found to be concentration dependent.

Two-dimensional crystallization of rabbit C-reactive protein on lipid monolayers.

Two-dimensional (2D) crystals of rabbit C-reactive protein (CRP) have been obtained by protein binding on lipid monolayers at the air/water interface. Two different types of crystalline arrays of CRP were obtained, by specific binding and non-specific adsorption to the lipids. Electron crystallographic analysis of the negatively stained specimens showed that the unit cell parameters of the CRP 2D crystals formed by specific binding were a=81 angstroms, b=78 angstroms, gamma=118.35 degrees, and those formed by nonspecific adsorption were a=74 angstroms, b=67 angstroms, gamma=95.5 degrees, both with the layer group p1. Projection maps were obtained at a resolution of 26 angstroms and 22 angstroms respectively. They showed that only the monomers of the CRP were packed in the 2D arrays and the orientations of the monomers on the lipid monolayers were different in the two types of crystals. By comparing the two projection maps, a preliminary shape of the CRP monomer has been derived. A model of the pentameric structure of the oligomeric CRP has been proposed.
