Title: | Method for isolation of antigen specific immunoglobulin |
Abstract: | A process for preparing the purified F(ab).sub.2 fragment of equine Ig(T) from horses hyperimmunized with snake venom which comprises: (a) passing crude diluted hyperimmune equine serum contianing snake venom antigen specific Ig(T) buffered to an acidic pH through a strong base anion exchange polymer; (b) passing the resultant pass-through solution to which is added sodium chloride to a concentration of 0.05-0.124M through a strong acid cation exchange polymer; (c) adjusting the pH of the pass-through of step (b) to a pH of 3.3, and digesting said pass-through with pepsin; and (d) ultrafiltering said pepsin-digested pass-through to obtain purified F(ab).sub.2 fragment of the snake venom antigen specific equine Ig(T). |
