Abstract

We have prepared a new matrix for the chromatography of coagulation factors using bead-polymerized dextran (Sephadex) sulfated by anhydrous reaction with chlorosulfonic acid. The material is a useful adsorbent for isolation of human plasma coagulation Factors II, IX, and X. Good recoveries (70, 40, and 50% for Factors II, IX, and X, respectively) of proteins homogeneous by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and >99% free of contaminating activities can be obtained from human plasma in 2 days. This new chromatographic material greatly simplifies the isolation of these coagulation factors.
