Summary The preparation method of peptide ligands employing polymer-supported solid-phase synthesis and leading to biospecific sorbents has been designed and optimized. This approach directly affords porous polymer sorbents for biospecific chromatography and avoids the cleavage of the synthesized peptide moieties from the carrier and their isolation. The specifics of both peptide synthesis and biospecific chromatography using hydrophilic macroporous polymer supports based on porous poly(glycidyl methacrylate-co-ethylene dimethacrylate) beads and discs were also investigated. The protecting groups can be removed from the target peptide (bradykinin) attached to the polymer support by trifluoromethylsulfonic acid without any significant loss of the attached peptide from the polymer carrier. Introduction of styrene as a comonomer into the copolymer structure improves the reactivity of the support. However, no nonspecific adsorption of proteins in the course of the biospecific isolation of antibradykinin antibodies was observed with these media. In contrast, the nonspecific sorption of proteins increases as a result of increasing peptide loading.
