Abstract
Type A botulinum neurotoxin was purified from toxic crystals by adsorption to p-aminophenyl-beta-D-thiogalactopyranoside coupled to CH-Sepharose 4B. At pH 6.3, the toxic complex was held by the binding between the ligand and the hemagglutinin of the complex; the toxin is eluted selectively by dissociating the complex with buffer-saline of pH 7.9. The single-step affinity chromatography recovered 50 to 60% of applied toxicity as preparations of greater than 99% purity.
