Integrated process for the purification of antibodies combining aqueous two-phase extraction, hydrophobic interaction chromatography and size-exclusion chromatography.
Journal of Chromatography. A 2008 December 13
We have evaluated a process incorporating aqueous two-phase extraction, hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) and size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) for the purification of human immunoglobulin G (IgG) from a Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell supernatant. These unit operations were chosen not only for allowing the removal of target impurities but also for facilitating the integration of different process units without the need for any conditioning step. Extraction in aqueous two-phase systems (ATPSs), composed of polyethylene glycol (PEG) and sodium citrate, allowed the concentration of the antibodies in the citrate-rich phase and the removal of the most hydrophobic compounds in the PEG-rich phase. An ATPS composed of 10% (w/w) PEG 3350 and 12% (w/w) citrate, at pH 6, allowed the recovery of IgG with a 97% yield, 41% HPLC purity and 72% protein purity. This bottom phase was then directly loaded on a phenyl-Sepharose HIC column. This intermediate purification step allowed the capture of the antibodies using a citrate mobile phase with 99% of the antibody recovered in the elution fractions, with 86% HPLC purity and 91% protein purity. Finally, SEC allowed the final polishing by removing IgG aggregates. HIC-eluted fractions were directly injected in a Superose 6 size-exclusion column affording a 100% pure IgG solution with 90% yield.
