INTRODUCTION
Ceramic hydroxyapatite is a spherical, macroporous form of hydroxyapatite that overcomes many of the limitations of crystalline hydroxyapatite (especially mechanical instability), that, as a result, can be used reproducibly at high flow rates and high pressures in large columns. This protocol, adapted with permission from the Bio-Rad application notes for CHT ceramic hydroxyapatite, describes the packing of ceramic hydroxyapatite for HPLC.
MATERIALS
IMPORTANT:
Use carbonate-free H2O to prepare all solutions. Carbonate reacts with calcium ions to form a crust of calcium carbonate at the top of the column.
Reagents
CHT ceramic hydroxyapatite (Bio-Rad)
Because of its ceramic nature, ceramic hydroxyapatite is
