Abstract

Polymyxin B was immobilized on the ion exchanger, Amberlite IRC-50. The modified support was used as an adsorbent for lipopolysaccharide ofE. coli from a phosphate buffer at pH = 7.0 and T = 20°C. The insertion of a spacer, 6-amino hexanoic acid, improved the adsorption capacity of the modified carrier significantly. Upon partial acetylation (25%) of primary amino groups of immobilized Polymyxin B, the adsorption capacity of the support was halved. From our results, it is concluded that the complex formation between lipopolysaccharide and immobilized Polymyxin B is based on both lipophilic, as well as electrostatic, interactions. Convenient procedures for the immobilization of the ligands and the characterization of the ion exchanger are described.
