The lantibiotic nisin A was purified to homogeneity by a single-step immunoaffinity chromatography method. An immunoadsorption matrix was developed by direct binding of anti-nisin A monoclonal antibodies to N- hydroxysuccinimide-activated Sepharose. The purification procedure was rapid and reproducible and rendered much higher final yields of nisin than any other described method.
