Abstract
CONVENTIONAL nonspecific precipitation methods sometimes depend on affinities which can be used in a more selective fashion by modern chromatographic techniques. The affinity of proteins for heavy metal ions, for example, may provide a basis for their purification and analysis. A highly flexible method based on such affinities is described here.
