The invention discloses a preparation method of nano magnetic beads for purifying 
histidine tagged 
protein. The method comprises the following steps: taking 
sodium alginate, FeCl3.6H2O, NaAc.3H2O andPEG as raw materials, taking 
ethylene glycol and deionized water as 
solvent, reacting through a solvothermal method to generate monodispersed 
sodium alginate / Fe3O4 nano magnetic beads, subsequently further carrying out an 
epoxy chloropropane cross-linking reaction and activation on the nano magnetic beads and the newly added 
sodium alginate, then introducing an 
iminodiacetic acid (IDA) chelating agent so as to obtain water-stable nano magnetic beads efficiently chelated with 
metal nickel or 
cobalt ions; and efficient, rapid, simple and low-cost separation and purification of the 
histidine tagged 
protein are realized. The method disclosed by the invention is simple, rapid and stable to operate and low in cost; the synthesized nano magnetic beads are large in specific surface area and stablein a water phase and not prone to agglomeration and 
precipitation; the purification efficiency of the 
histidine tagged 
protein is greatly improved; and the large-batch industrial production of the nano magnetic beads can be realized.
