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. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights re
