Adsorption of bovine serum albumin onto immobilized cobalt microporous and mesoporous silica adsorbents

The adsorptions of Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) onto mesoporous and microporous silica adsorbents were done. The cobalt (Co) metal cation had been immobilized into mesoporous silica adsorbents (MCM-41 and SBA-15) and microporous silica adsorbents (Beta and ZSM-5). These absorbents have been characteri...
