A method for preparing, in the internal volume of at least one channel, a monolithic support on which uranyl cations are immobilised. The method comprises: (a) activating the inner surface of the channel(s); (b) introducing, into the internal volume of the channel(s), a polymerisation solution comprising: a monomer comprising a phosphate group, at least one crosslinking agent, several solvents, and a radical polymerisation initiator; (c) polymerising the polymerisation solution; (d) rinsing the monolithic support obtained in step (c); and (e) contacting the monolithic support previously rinsed, with a solution comprising uranyl cations. A method for capturing proteins that selectively bind uranium by means of a monolithic support prepared by the above-mentioned method, as well as to a method for recovering proteins that selectively bind uranium with the capture method.
