- Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To purify superoxide dismutase from fresh pig blood by using definite molecular weight polyacylic acid sodium (PAAS) as dispersant, explore the effect of different molecular weight of polyacylic acid sodium on SOD activity, and compare the new process with the traditional process to determine the optimum molecular weight of polyacylic acid sodium for purification of SOD from blood. METHODS: Low, medium, and high molecular weight polyacylic acid sodium were used as highly efficient electrolyte with copper chloride as enzyme activator agent to improve the traditional blood purification technology via the key steps such as hemolysis, thermal alteration, cold acetone precipitation, ultrafiltration concentration, filtration chromatography and ion exchange chromatography. RESULTS: High purity enzyme was obtained, the enzyme activity was up to 5585 and 6 148 U · mg-1, and the product yields were 15.2% and 11.5%, respectively. The activity recoveries were 55.2% and 45.8% resectively after purification. SDS-PAGE showed a single stripe, and the subunit's molecular was around 16 × 103. Different molecular weight of PAAS played inconsistent role in the process of purification of SOD. PAAS with a solid content of 3.45% and a hemolysis volume of 20% was suitable for the purification of blood SOD. CONCLUSION: Low molecular weight PAAS is suitable as a polymer electrolyte to purify blood SOD, while the medium and high molecular weight PAAS are not appropriate for industrialized purification.
