This high-flow immobilized-metal affinity medium is designed for capture and purification of His-tagged proteins. It uses large polymethyl methacrylate particles with a hydrophilically modified surface. IDA chelating groups coordinate nickel ions for selective histidine binding. The 200 µm particle size provides high permeability and low operating resistance. A 1000 Å pore structure supports access by proteins and other compatible biomolecules. The medium provides a stated His-protein capacity of at least 18 mg/mL. Nickel-ion binding of approximately 55 µmol/mL supports stable affinity functionality. Its rigid particles allow linear flow from 800 to 1000 cm/h with a low compression factor.
