Affinity Chromatography of Urokinase Using Cefazoline as a Ligand.

Sepharose 4B-based affinity adsorbent was prepared using cefazoline as a ligand, and epichlorohydrin as an activator. The density of the ligand in the affinity adsorbents was about 43 &mgr;mol/g wet gel. The optimal adsorption pH for urokinase was 6.
