ABSTRACT

A stable T-2 hydrazide gel is prepared by activating T-2 toxin with tresyl chloride followed by coupling to agarose-adipic acid hydrazide. Utilized as an affinity chromatography column, this T-2 hydrazide gel purifies a monoclonal antibody for T-2 in high yield directly from ascites fluid. Specific antibody trapped on the column is eluted either with excess T-2 or at pH 11.6. Much less successful are two other T-2 affinity columns that were prepared and evaluated: T-2 bovine serum albumin Affi-Gel 15 and T-2 hexylamine Sepharose.
