重组蛋白 A 琼脂糖纯化树脂

Introduction                                                                                                                      

Sino Biological Protein A Agarose Beads / Resin was produced by immobilizing recombinant protein A to 4% cross-linked agarose matrix. The recombinant protein A contains IgG binding domains, eliminating nonspecific binding sites and reducing steric hindrance.

Purification cycle	• 5 cv binding buffer wash the column   • 5 cv elution buffer   • 2 cv binding buffer   • 3 cv CIP buffer   • 3 cv binding buffer
Measure column capacity:	Comlumn capacity was tested every 15 practical purification cycle by applying 600 mg of a humanized monoclonal antibody with concentration of 1 mg/ml, and measure the recovery of the antibody. The procedure is the same with purification cycle. All capacity test experiment use the same antibody.

CIP Protocol                                                                                                                      

The most common CIP procedure for Protein A resin is washing the resin with 2 column volumes of 6 M guanidine hydrochloride to remove precipitated or denatured substances, followed by re-equilibrating with at least 5 column volumes of binding buffer. For strongly bound hydrophobic proteins, lipoproteins and lipids, wash the resin with a non-ionic detergent, for instance, 0.1%. Triton X-100, at 37 °C. Immediately re-equilibrate with at least 5 column volumes of binding buffer. If the above methods are still not effective to remove the impurities, wash the medium with 5 column volumes of 50 mM NaOH, 1 M NaCl solution, Re-equilibrate with at least 5 column volumes of binding buffer.

Protein A residual                                                                                                              

Protein A residual in 10 monoclonal antibodies randomly taken from manufactural purification. The feedstock used was the supernatant of 293 cell line expressing various humanized monocolnal antibody, human monoclonal antibody or protein-Fc chimera. The volume of culture loaded varies from 1000 ml to 2000 ml.

Stability Study                                                                                                                    

The IgG binding capacity and recovery was maintained after seven days storage at room temperature in solutions list below: 3 M NaSCN 6 M guanidine-HCl 8 M urea 0.1 M glycine, pH 3.0 70% ethanol. Recovery of antibody at the loading burden of 30 mg/ml medium after storage in varous solutions.

Column Regeneration                                                                                                       

Regeneration step should be operated after elution to remove the residue proteins and impurities on the resin for repeated use. Wash the resin with 2–3 bed volumes of regeneration buffer followed by re-equilibration with 2–3 bed volumes of binding buffer. Sometimes the regeneration buffer is the same with the elution buffer, such as 0.1 M glycine buffer pH 3.0 or 0.1 M citric acid pH 3.0. When the elution buffer has a milder condition to avoid aggregation or degradation, the regeneration buffer is different, with a lower pH or containing different salts. But this procedure does not guarantee removing all kinds of impurities like denatured proteins or lipids. In this case, cleaning in place procedure is indispensable.

Storage                                                                                                                              

For storage, keep the medium at 2°C to 8°C in a suitable bacteriostat, e.g. 20% ethanol and/or 0.02% sodium azide. Notice: The resin must not be frozen.
