Protein A Alternatives: Mixed Mode Resins For High Throughput mAb Feedstocks
Mixed mode resins can serve as an alternative to protein A in intermediate processing. Implementation of mixed mode resins can reduce water required for filtration and time for column loading.
DOWNSTREAM PROCESSING PRODUCTS
CHT is a leading purification medium of biomolecules in today’s demanding downstream process industry. Its mixed-mode support offers unique selectivities and often separates biomolecules that appear homogeneous with other chromatographic methods. The diverse binding capabilities of CHT for host cell proteins, leached protein A, antibody dimers and aggregates, nucleic acids, and viruses allow its use at any stage from initial capture to final polishing.
