An affinity purification technique based on ’non-specific’ adsorption to an ion exchanger. Cation exchangers appear to be particularly useful for this purpose. Purification specificity is achieved using gradient elution with substrate. 1, record 1, English, - affinity%20elution
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Affinity elution is complementary to affinity chromatography in that in the former technique the specificity of interaction is at the stage of desorption from the chromatographic support material, whereas in the latter the specificity occurs at the stage of adsorption. In affinity elution the enzyme of interest(along with others) is adsorbed onto an ion exchanger... and then is eluted specifically by the appropriate substrate. 2, record 1, English, - affinity%20elution

Méthode de séparation dont les principes généraux sont les mêmes que ceux énoncés pour la chromatographie en général, c'est-à-dire fondés sur la migration différentielle des constituants du mélange à analyser au travers d'un substrat choisi.
