Abstract

Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVAL) particles (average size: 50 μm) were prepared in the present study by chemical crosslinking of PVAL with glutaraldehyde in an organic dispersion oil phase. Cibacron Blue F3G-A was attached to these hydrophilic PVAL particles. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) adsorption onto these dye-attached PVAL particles from aqueous solutions containing different amounts of BSA in three different salts (i.e., NaCl, CaCl2, and NaSCN) at different pH and ionic strengths was investigated in batch reactors. The maximum adsorption capacity (about 35 mg BSA/g dye-attached PVAL) was observed around pH 6.0 in a medium containing NaCl with an ionic strength of 0.01. Nonspecific BSA adsorption on plain PVAL particles was almost zero. About 90% of the adsorbed BSA was desorbed by using a 0.5 M NaSCN desorption medium for 1 hour.
