Science Buddies: "Ask an Expert"

What's Affinity Chromatography? Can anyone give me some introduction? I can't understand clearly the definition of it.

Affinity chromatography is a method of separating biochemical mixtures based on a highly specific interaction such as that between antigen and antibody, enzyme and substrate, or receptor and ligand.
