Abstract: The invention is directed to methods for purifying Troponin I, particularly recombinant Tropnin I produced in a bacterial expression system. Recombinant Tropnin I can be advantageously purified after reversibly protecting the free sulfhydryl groups, e.g., by forming sulfates. In a specific example, Tropnin I reacted with sodium tetrafhionate yielded sulfitolyzed Tropnin I, which was purified by chromatography on an anion exchanger, followed by hydrophobic interaction chromatography. Facile deprotection of the sulfhydryl groups yields a highly purified product ready for refolding.

Abstract: This invention relates to a microporous or macroporous affinity filtration membrane wherein the matrix of the membrane is composed of chitin and the pores are made by dissolution of porogen during the preparation of the membrane. The invention also relates to a method for the purification of wheat germ agglutinin using chitin microprous or macroporous membranes.
