Mimetic Ligand™ Adsorbents
Mimetic ligands™ are highly stable, synthetic affinity ligands which are capable of interacting with a wide range of proteins. Unlike the crude textile dyes which have been used previously, Mimetic ligands™ have purpose-designed structures which are synthesized and immobilized to solid supports by extremely stable spacer-arm linkages. They offer higher degrees of purification, minimal ligand leakage and more reproducible separations than can be achieved by low quality textile dye adsorbents. A diverse range of ligand structures have been developed, each of which incorporates features which mimic the protein-binding components of natural ligands. Consequently each Mimetic ligand™ has a very different specificity allowing a wide range of proteins to be purified.
