Production of final product

1. cell harvesting and recovery of crude product

2. concentration and initial purification

3. main purification(chromatography)

4. final product formulation

5. product filling, freeze-drying and sealing

6. labeling and packaging

1. working cell bank vial removed from storage

2. propagation of working bank cells, generating starter cultures

3. production-scale cell culture

Column Chromatography

15

Separate sample by

separation column

Separation column is

packed with stationary

phase

With the addition of mobile

phase (solvent), different

samples are eluted at

different timehttps://chem.libretexts.org/Textbook_Maps/Analytical_Chemistry_Textbook_Maps/Map%3A_Analytical_Chemistry_2.

AffinitySpecific ligand-substrate

interaction

Adsorption Covalent/noncovalent binding

Hydrophobic

Cation ion exchange chromatography (IEC) and

anion IEC

17

IEC is always the

first purification

method

IEC removes

proteins and other

impurities with

different charge

First adsorption

and then elution

are separated from contaminants that

are structurally related

• Ideally after ion-exchange

chromatography


Adsorption chromatography

“normal

chromatography”

Protein of interest

High-ratio adsorption

Economically scalable

Gel permeation chromatography

21

Commonly used as the final step in purification

Also called size exclusion chromatography

Separate proteins according to their shape and size

Centrifugation

25

Buoyant density centrifugation

viscous fluid with different densities in a tube

http://www.freewebs.com/ltaing/centrifugation.htm


Precipitation

26

Scalable, simple, economical

Limited purity, too many precipitates are hard to

handle

http://chemwiki.ucdavis.edu/@api/deki/files/1325/precipitation_reactions.jpg?revision=1


Use salt to precipitate

27

Chaotropic series with increasing “salting out”

effects

Ammonium sulfate


Use water-miscible organic solvents to precipitate

28

water-miscible organic solvents

Change dielectric constant ε

Examples

Polyethylene glycol –(CH2CH2O)n

Trichloracetic acid CCl3COOH

Under certain conditions, chitosan and non-ionic

polyoxyethylene detergents

Components in marketed formulations西安电子科技大学夏玉琼

Solubility enhancers

34

Amino acids such as lysine and arginine

used to solubilize tissue plasminogen activator, t-PA

Surfactants such as SDS

to solubilize non-glucosylated IL-2

Solubility increase with higher

arginine concentration


Protein adsorption and aggregation

35

Protein can be adsorbed to the interface like

water/air, water/container wall and water/needle

Adsorbed proteins form aggregates and precipitate


Anti-adsorption and anti-aggregation agents

36

1% Albumin (白蛋白)

Adsorb to surfaces instead of drugs

Surfactant

Adsorb to the hydrophobic interfaces and turn the

interface hydrophilic


Buffer components

37

Short, temporary pH change can cause

aggregation

Phosphate (pH 5.8-8.0, 11.0-11.9), citrate (pH 3.0-

6.2) and acetate buffer (pH 3.7-5.6)

http://delloyd.50megs.com/moreinfo/buffers2.html


Preservatives (防腐剂) and antioxidants

38

Antioxidants belong to preservatives

Easily oxidized amino acids

Methionine, cysteine, tryptophan, tyrosine, histidine

Inert gas in the vials can reduce oxidation


Antioxidants

39

Ascorbic acid (抗坏血酸，维生素C)

Acetylcysteine （乙酰半胱氨酸）
