Resolution of DL-Tryptophan by Affinity Chromatography on Bovine-Serum Albumin-Agarose Columns

Kent K Stewart 1, Robert F Doherty 1
PMCID: PMC427123  PMID: 4517938

Abstract

Bovine-serum albumin, known to have antipodal specificity in the binding of tryptophan, was selected as the affinity chromatographic matrix for the attempted chromatographic resolution of DL-tryptophan. Complete resolution was accomplished when Dl-tryptophan was chromatographed on bovine-serum albuminsuccinoylaminoethyl-Sepharose.
