Abstract
Macroporous cellulose membranes with large pore sizes (1-2 mum) and high po rosity (about 60%) were prepared from filter paper by chemical crosslinking . These membranes were activated by introducing epoxy groups with various s pacer lengths. after which maltose was immobilized as an affinity ligand. p acked into a cartridge, the prepared membranes were used for the affinity p urification of concanavalin A.
