Monoclonal Antibody Purification Platform Using High-Capacity Protein A And Mixed-Mode ChromatographyThe first step in purification of an important class of therapeutic proteins, the polyclonal or monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), is their capture from plasma or tissue culture supernatants. Protein A–based media are by far the most common class of affinity products used for this purpose.

Removal Of Host Cell Proteins During Monoclonal Antibody Purification
Protein A chromatography is a widely used and highly successful method of purifying recombinant monoclonal antibodies. However, since Protein A has high affinity for antibodies, harsh conditions such as low pH are often required to elute monoclonal antibodies from Protein A affinity columns. By 3M Purification Inc

Amsphere™ A3 is a next generation Protein A chromatography resin for advanced protein separation in downstream processing of therapeutic antibodies manufacturing. With high capacity resin, Amsphere™ A3 has an overall improved process robustness, flow characteristics, optimized impurity removal, productivity and resin lifetime.
Mixed-mode chromatography resin is a top tier selection for the manipulation, purification and handling of molecules; providing an unmatched level of separation properties and resolution. The combination of cation exchange resin and metal affinity resin properties, allows multimodal chromatography to provide an access route for biomolecules to separate and the use of alternative chromatographic methods make these biomolecules seem homogenous.
A proven method for confirming protein purity and yield without the need for gel staining steps. Stain-free gels provide visual confirmation of protein purity and yield by gel electrophoresis in less than 30 minutes. Stain-free technology is perfect for drug discovery, drug development, and method development for preclinical research.
