Field-assisted extraction of cells, particles and macromolecules

Improved bioseparation techniques are increasingly important for biotechnology because separation is often the limiting factor for the success of biological processes. Manufacturers of new enzymes and pharmaceutical products require improved methods for recovering intact cells and intracellular products. Similarly the isolation, purification and concentration of many biomolecules produced in fermentation processes is extremely important. Often such downstream processing contributes a large portion of the product cost and thus efficient and economical alternative approaches to bioseparation processes are needed to eliminate, reduce or facilitate the handling of solids. Field-assisted separations, which hold immense potential for providing a major improvement in bioseparation in the near future, are considered in this review. Special emphasis is given to multistage methods, which are cost-effective compared with competing technologies. Commercial applications of these methods are detailed, we present suggestions for future work and we analyse the scale-up and economic aspects of these processes.     

Separation of nattokinase fromBacillus subtilis fermentation broth by expanded bed adsorption with mixed-mode adsorbent

Mixed-mode hydrophobic/ionic matrices exhibit a salt-tolerant property for adsorbing target protein from high-ionic strength feedstock, which allows the application of undiluted feedstockvia an expanded bed process. In the present work, a new type of mixed-mode adsorbent designed for expanded bed adsorption, Fastline PRO^®, was challenged for the capture of nattokinase from the high ionic fermentation broth ofBacillus subtilis. Two important factors, pH and ion concentration, were investigated with regard to the performance of nattokinase adsorption. Under initial fermentation broth conditions (pH 6.6 and conductivity of 10 mS/cm) the adsorption capacity of nattokinase with Fastline PRO was high, with a maximum capacity of 5,350 U/mL adsorbent. The elution behaviors were investigated using packed bed adsorption experiments, which demonstrated that the effective desorption of nattokinase could be achieved by effecting a pH of 9.5. The biomass pulse response experiments were carried out in order to evaluate the biomass/adsorbent interactions betweenBacillus subtilis cells and Fastline PRO, and to demonstrate a stable expanded bed in the feedstock containingBacillus subtilis cells. Finally, an EBA process, utilizing mixed-mode Fastline PRO adsorbent, was optimized to capture nattokinase directly from the fermentation broth. The purification factor reached 12.3, thereby demonstrating the advantages of the mixed-mode EBA in enzyme separation.     

Recent advances in bioprocessing application of membrane chromatography

Compared to traditional chromatography using resins in packed-bed columns, membrane chromatography is a relatively new and immature bioseparation technology based on the integration of membrane filtration and liquid chromatography into a single-stage operation. Over the past decades, advances in membrane chemistry have yielded novel membrane devices with high binding capacities and improved mass transfer properties, significantly increasing the bioprocessing efficiency for purification of biomolecules. Due to the disposable nature, low buffer consumption, and reduced equipment costs, membrane chromatography can significantly reduce downstream bioprocessing costs. In this review, we discuss technological merits and disadvantages associated with membrane chromatography as well as recent bioseparation applications with a particular attention on purification of large biomolecules.

Interfacial protein adsorption and inactivation.

Protein inactivations at liquid-liquid, gas-liquid, and liquid-solid interfaces are presented. Wherever possible the mechanisms of protein inactivation, the extent of inactivation, and means by which this inactivation may be minimized are presented. Emphasis is placed on the 'quality' or the heterogeneity of the protein absorbed at the different types of interfaces. The analysis of the adsorption of proteins at different types of interfaces presented together provides novel physical insights into protein interactions at interfaces. The influence of protein adsorption at interfaces on bioseparations is analyzed by discussing examples on two-phase separations, fermentation systems, membrane separation systems, and chromatographic separations. Valuable knowledge gained during protein adsorption for biomedical applications may be applied with caution to bioseparation systems wherever appropriate. Future theoretical and experimental analysis on protein adsorption in bioseparation systems should pay more attention to the 'quality' of the protein adsorbed at the interface.     

Microbial production of nattokinase: current progress,challenge and prospect

Nattokinase (EC 3.4.21.62) is a profibrinolytic serine protease with a potent fibrin-degrading activity, and it has been produced by many host strains. Compared to other fibrinolytic enzymes (urokinase, t-PA and streprokinase), nattokinase shows the advantages of having no side effects, low cost and long life-time, and it has the potential to be used as a drug for treating cardiovascular disease and served as a functional food additive. In this review, we focused on screening of producing strains, genetic engineering, fermentation process optimization for microbial nattokinase production, and the extraction and purification of nattokinase were also discussed in this particular chapter. The selection of optimal nattokinase producing strain was the crucial starting element for improvement of nattokinase production. Genetic engineering, protein engineering, fermentation optimization and process control have been proved to be the effective strategies for enhancement of nattokinase production. Also, extraction and purification of nattokinase are critical for the quality evaluation of nattokinase. Finally, the prospect of microbial nattokinase production was also discussed regarding the recent progress, challenge, and trends in this field.     

Purification of equine IgG using membrane based enhanced hybrid bioseparation technique: a potential method for manufacturing hyperimmune antibody

Hyperimmune equine IgG is widely used as antivenom and anti-rabies agents. This article discusses a membrane based enhanced hybrid bioseparation technique for efficient and scalable purification of equine immunoglobulin G (IgG) from horse serum. This technique is an improved version of a standard hybrid bioseparation technique developed within our group earlier for fractionation of human plasma proteins (Ghosh. 2004. J Membr Sci 237: 109-117). In the presence of a high antichaotropic salt concentration, equine IgG is selectively and reversibly captured within a stirred cell membrane module from horse serum, partly due to precipitation and microfiltration, and partly due to hydrophobic interaction based membrane adsorption, while the impurities are washed out from the device. The reversibly sequestered IgG is then released by lowering the salt concentration which favor both dissolution of the precipitated IgG and desorption of the membrane bound IgG. The enhanced hybrid bioseparation technique improves the IgG recovery from the membrane module by switching from a stirring to non-stirring mode during the IgG release phase. It also reduces membrane fouling by an appropriate pH switch. The effects of operating conditions on equine IgG capture were first systematically studied. The enhanced hybrid bioseparation technique was followed by an ultrafiltration step to remove ammonium sulfate and low molecular weight impurities. The equine IgG purity obtained under optimized conditions was 88% and its recovery was over 90%, both being significantly higher than corresponding values obtained using currently used purification techniques.     

Superparamagnetic poly(methyl methacrylate) beads for nattokinase purification from fermentation broth

An effective method for purification of nattokinase from fermentation broth using magnetic poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) beads immobilized with p-aminobenzamidine was proposed in this study. Firstly, magnetic PMMA beads with a narrow size distribution were prepared by spraying suspension polymerization. Then, they were highly functionalized via transesterification reaction with polyethylene glycol. The surface hydroxyl-modified magnetic beads obtained were further modified with chloroethylamine to transfer the surface amino-modified magnetic functional beads. The morphology and surface functionality of the magnetic beads were examined by scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared. An affinity ligand, p-aminobenzamidine was covalently immobilized to the amino-modified magnetic beads by the glutaraldehyde method for nattokinase purification directly from the fermentation broth. The purification factor and the recovery of the enzyme activity were found to be 8.7 and 85%, respectively. The purification of nattokinase from fermentation broth by magnetic beads only took 40 min, which shows a very fast purification of nattokinase compared to traditional purification methods.     

Protein loading,elution, and resolution behavior in a novel device that integrates ultrafiltration and chromatographic separation

Hollow fiber membranes and chromatographic resin beads are commonly employed in a variety of bioseparation processes. A new class of integrated separation devices is being studied in which the shell side of a hollow fiber device is filled with adsorbents/chromatographic resin beads. Such devices and the corresponding separation methods integrate feed broth clarification by the microfiltration/ultrafiltration membrane with bioproduct purification by the shell-side resin beads either as an adsorbent or as beads in elution chromatography. A mathematical model has been developed for the prediction of the chromatographic behavior of such an integrated device. Simulations have been done to study the effects of axial dispersion, feed flow rate, water permeation rate, fiber packing density, and void fraction. Numerical solutions were obtained by solving the governing equations. This model can reasonably describe the concentration profiles as well as the breakthrough and elution behaviors in the integrated device.
