ECH-Agarose contains carboxyl functional group for coupling of affinity ligand s via their amine groups for affinity chromatography. ECH-Agarose is prepared by condensation of Carboxyl Coupling Resin (Cat. # 786-797) with succinic anhydride, resulting in 15-atom hydrophilic spacer arm.
Amine groups of the ligand s bind to the ECH-Agarose by carbodiimide coupling method. In this coupling method the free carboxyl group of the resin reacts with amine group of the ligand to form a stable peptide bond in the presence of water soluble carbodiimide such as EDC (N-ethyl-N’-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrochloride) at low pH (4-5).
