This invention relates to a method of immobilizing a protein on particles, and more particularly to a method of immobilizing an antibody on magnetic particles. The method of immobilizing the protein on the particles can prevent aggregation due to non-specific binding between proteins and between proteins and particles, whereby a relatively small amount of protein can be immobilized on particles.

The precursor of a hydroprocessing catalyst is made by impregnating a metal oxide component comprising at least one metal from Group 6 of the Periodic Table and at least one metal from Groups 8-10 of the Periodic Table with an amide formed from a first organic compound containing at least one amine group, and a second organic compound containing at least one carboxylic acid group.
