The first reference in the literature to a commercially available protein A chromatography resin appeared in 1976. [20] Today, chromatographic separation using protein A immobilized on porous substrates is the most widely established method for purifying monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) from harvest cell culture supernatant.

Protein purification is a critical process in molecular biology and biochemistry, aimed at isolating a specific protein from a complex mixture, such as cell lysates or tissue extracts. [9] The goal is to obtain the protein in a pure form that retains its biological activity for further study, including functional assays, structural analysis, or ...
Chromatofocusing is a protein-separation technique that allows resolution of single proteins and other ampholytes from a complex mixture according to differences in their isoelectric point. [1] Chromatofocusing uses ion exchange resins and is typically performed on fast protein liquid chromatography (FPLC) or similar equipment capable of ...
Chromatographic assays measure product formation by separating the reaction mixture into its components by chromatography. This is usually done by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), but can also use the simpler technique of thin layer chromatography. Although this approach can need a lot of material, its sensitivity can be increased ...
Picture of an SDS-PAGE. The molecular markers (ladder) are in the left lane. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) is a technique widely used in biochemistry, forensic chemistry, genetics, molecular biology and biotechnology to separate biological macromolecules, usually proteins or nucleic acids, according to their electrophoretic mobility.
The two dimensions that proteins are separated into using this technique can be isoelectric point, protein complex mass in the native state, or protein mass. [citation needed] The separation by isoelectric point is called isoelectric focusing. Thereby, a pH gradient is applied to a gel and an electric potential is applied across the gel, making ...
Tandem affinity purification (TAP) is an immunoprecipitation-based purification technique for studying protein–protein interactions.The goal is to extract from a cell only the protein of interest, in complex with any other proteins it interacted with.
The protein manufacturing cost remains high and there is a growing demand to develop cost efficient and rapid protein purification methods. Understanding of the different protein purification methods and optimizing the downstream processing are critical to minimize production costs while maintaining the quality of acceptable standards of homogeneity.
