Gelatin Sepharose 4B affinity resin with immobilized gelatin is designed for the purification or depletion of fibronectin as gelatin binds to fibronectin with high specificity. Gelatin Sepharose 4B is bovine gelatin coupled to Sepharose 4B by the cyanogen bromide method
Description
Gelatin binds specifically to fibronectin, which is a high molecular weight glycoprotein found on the surfaces of many cell types and present in many extracellular fluids including plasma. Gelatin Sepharose 4B has been designed for the purification or removal of fibronectin.

Cleaning-in-place
In some applications, substances like denaturated proteins or lipids do not elute by the regeneration. These substances can be removed by washing the resin using a detergent solution, at 37°C for one minute. Re-equilibrate the resin then immediately with at least 5 bed volumes using the binding buffer.
