The objective of this paper is to give some concrete distinctions between positive linear maps and completely positive linear maps on C*-algebras of operators.

Herein, C*-algebras possess an identity and are written in German type . Capital letters A, B, C stand for operators, script letters for vector spaces, small letters x, y, z for vectors. Capital Greek letters Φ, Ψ stand for linear maps on C*-algebras, small Greek letters α, β, γ for complex numbers.

We denote by the collection of all n × n complex matrices. () = ⊗ is the C*-algebra of n × n matrices over .
