The invention discloses a method for separation of antibodies or antibody fragments, comprising the steps of: a) providing a feed comprising antibodies or antibody fragments having a VH3 region and being devoid of an Fc region capable of binding to Protein A; b) contacting the feed with a separation resin having covalently coupled ligands, wherein the ligands comprise a polypeptide as defined by SEQ ID NO 1 and wherein the antibodies or antibody fragments bind to the separation resin; c) optionally washing the separation resin with a washing liquid; d) eluting the antibodies or antibody fragments from the separation resin with an elution liquid and recovering the antibodies or antibody fragments.
