![Optimized Purity And Recovery Of A Monoclonal Antibody Using Mixed-Mode Chromatography Media]( "Optimized Purity And Recovery Of A Monoclonal Antibody Using Mixed-Mode Chromatography Media")
Optimized Purity And Recovery Of A Monoclonal Antibody Using Mixed-Mode Chromatography MediaMonoclonal antibodies (mAbs) remain a predominant class of therapeutic protein products on the market because of their wide range of applications in disease treatment and diagnosis. Over the years, upstream technology advancements have helped improve the titer of target antibodies, from merely 1 g/L two decades ago to 10–13 g/L in fed-batch processes and up to 25 g/L in perfusion cultures today (Gronemeyer et al. 2014).
