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
