Selective purification of α-(1,4)-oligogalacturonides was investigated using several pseudobioaffinity chromatography matrix with aminoacid l-histidine as pseudobiospecific ligand: (1) sepharose 4B-bisoxyran-histidine, (2) sepharose 4B-epoxy-histidine, (3) silica-oxyran-histidine and (4) CIM-disk-EDA-histidine. These anionic oligosaccharides prepared by enzymatic and chemical cleavage of polygalacturonic acid were used as models sugar in order to optimize the adsorption and elution parameters for a selective purification of bioactive oligouronides. Monolithic CIM-disk chromatography is one of the fastest liquid chromatographic method using for separation and purification of biomolecules thanks to high mass transfer rate. In this way, this new monolithic CIM-disk system with l-histidine immobilized: immobilized histidine affinity chromatography (IHAC) constitutes a good tool allowing the fast and selective purification of bioactive oligouronides.
