Optimisation of aqueous two-phase extraction of human antibodies   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The purification of human antibodies in an aqueous two-phase system (ATPS) composed of polyethylene glycol (PEG) 6000 and phosphate was optimised by surface response methodology. A central composite design was used to evaluate the influence of phosphate, PEG and NaCl concentration and of the pH on the purity and extraction yield of IgG from a simulated serum medium. The conditions that maximise the partition of IgG into the upper phase were determined to be high concentrations of NaCl and PEG, low concentrations of phosphate and low pH values. An ATPS composed of 12% PEG, 10% phosphate, 15% NaCl at pH 6 was further used to purify human monoclonal antibodies from a Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) concentrated cell culture supernatant with a recovery yield of 88% in the upper PEG-rich phase and a purification factor of 4.3. This ATPS was also successfully used to purify antibodies from a hybridoma cell culture supernatant with a recovery yield of 90% and a purification factor of 4.1.  相似文献

In this work, we investigated the feasibility of using phenyl boronate (PB) chromatography for the direct capture of monoclonal antibodies from a CHO cell supernatant. Preliminary results, using pure protein solutions have shown that PB media can bind to human antibodies, not only at strong alkaline conditions but also at acidic pH values. In fact, antibodies have been found to bind in the pH range 5.5-8.5. On the other hand, insulin and human serum albumin did not bind at alkaline pH but at lower pH, which reflects the importance of non-specific interactions with the matrix. Different binding and eluting buffers were evaluated for the capture of immunoglobulin G (IgG) from a CHO cell supernatant and the most promising results were obtained using 20 mM 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid at pH 8.5 as binding buffer and 1.5 M Tris-HCl as eluting buffer. Using a step elution, all IgG was recovered in the elution pool with a maximum purification factor of 56. A gradient elution allowed a further increase of the final purity, yet achieving a slightly lower yield. IgG recovery was around 85% and the purification factor was 76. The highest purity was obtained when the pH of the cell supernatant feed was previously adjusted to 8.5. Starting from an initial protein purity of 1.1% and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) purity of 2.2%, after PB adsorption, a final protein purity of 85% and a HPLC purity of 88% was achieved.  相似文献

This contribution describes strategies to purify monoclonal antibodies from Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell culture supernatant using newly designed multimodal membranes (MMMs). The MMMs were used for the capture step purification of human IgG1 following a size‐exclusion desalting column to remove chaotropic salts that interfere with IgG binding. The MMM column attained higher dynamic binding capacity than a Protein A resin column at an equivalent residence time of 1 min. The two‐step MMM chromatography process achieved high selectivity for capturing hIgG1 from the CHO cell culture supernatant, though the desalting step resulted in product dilution. Product purity and host cell protein (HCP) level in the elution pool were analyzed and compared to results from a commercial Protein A column. The product purity was >98% and HCP levels were <20 ppm for both purification methods. In addition, hIgG1 could be eluted from the MMM chromatography column at neutral pH, which is important for limiting the formation of aggregates; although slow elution dilutes the product. Overall, this paper shows that MMMs are highly effective for capture step purification of proteins and should be considered when Protein A cannot be used, e.g., for pH sensitive mAbs or proteins lacking an Fc binding domain. © 2017 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol.

An aqueous two-phase extraction (ATPE) process based on a PEG/phosphate system was developed for the capture of human immunoglobulin G and successfully applied to a Chinese hamster ovary and a PER.C6® cell supernatant. A continuous ATPE process incorporating three different steps (extraction, back-extraction, and washing) was set up and validated in a pump mixer-settler battery. Most of the higher molecular weight cell supernatant impurities were removed during the extraction step, while most of the lower molecular weight impurities were removed during the subsequent steps. A global recovery yield of 80% and a final protein purity of more than 99% were obtained for the IgG purification from a CHO cell supernatant, representing a 155-fold reduction in the protein/IgG ratio. For the purification of IgG from a PER.C6® cell supernatant, a global recovery yield of 100%, and a host cell protein purity were attained, representing a 22-fold reduction in the host cell protein/IgG ratio. These results, thus, open promising perspectives for the application of the developed ATPE process as a platform for the capture of antibodies. In fact, this new process has shown the ability to successfully recover and purify different antibodies from distinct cell culture supernatants. This technology can also overcome some of the limitations encountered using the typical chromatographic processes, besides inherent advantages of scalability, process integration, capability of continuous operation, and economic feasibility.  相似文献

A synthetic ligand called 2-mercapto-5-benzimidazolesulfonic acid has been successfully used for the specific chromatographic capture of antibodies from a cell culture supernatant. Adsorption occurred at physiological ionic strength and pH range between 5.0 and 6.0, with some binding capacity variations within this pH range: antibody uptake increased when the pH decreased. With very dilute feedstocks, as was the case with the cell culture supernatant under investigation, it was found that the pH had to be slightly lowered to get a good antibody sorption capacity. To optimize separation conditions, a preliminary study was made using ProteinChip Arrays that displayed the same chemical functionalities as the resin. Arrays were analyzed using SELDI-MS. By this mean, it was possible to cross-over simultaneously different pH conditions at the adsorption and the desorption steps. Best conditions were implemented for preparative separation using regular lab-scale columns. At pH 5.2, antibody adsorption was not complete, while at pH 5.0 the antibody was entirely captured. pH 9 was selected at elution, rather than pH 8.0 or 10.0, and resulted in a complete desorption of antibodies from the column. Benefits of the prediction of separation conditions of antibodies on MBI beads using SELDI-MS were a significant reduction in analysis time and in sample volume. This was possible because the separation of IgG on the chip surface did mimic very well the separation on beads.  相似文献

The potential of cationic polyelectrolytes to precipitate host cell and process related impurities was investigated, to replace one or more chromatography steps in monoclonal antibody purification. The impact of antibody isoelectric point, solution properties (pH and ionic strength), and polyelectrolyte properties (structure, molecular weight and pK(a)) on the degree of precipitation was studied. At neutral pH, increasing solution ionic strength impeded the ionic interaction between the polyelectrolyte and impurities, reducing impurity precipitation. Increasing polyelectrolyte molecular weight and pK(a) enabled precipitation of impurities at higher ionic strength. PoIy(arginine) was selected as the preferred polyelectrolyte in unconditioned cell culture fluid. PoIy(arginine) precipitation achieved consistent host cell protein clearance and antibody recovery for multiple antibodies across a wider range of polyelectrolyte concentrations. Poly(arginine) precipitation was evaluated as a flocculant and as a functional replacement for anion exchange chromatography in an antibody purification process. Upstream treatment of cell culture fluid with poly(arginine) resulted in flocculation of solids (cells and cell debris), and antibody recovery and impurity clearance (host cell proteins, DNA and insulin) comparable to the downstream anion exchange chromatography step.  相似文献

Purification of recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) from Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell culture supernatant by Gradiflow large-scale electrophoresis is described. Production of rhGH in CHO cells is an alternative to production in Escherichia coli, with the advantage that rhGH is secreted into protein-free production media, facilitating a more simple purification and avoiding resolubilization of inclusion bodies and protein refolding. As an alternative to conventional chromatography, rhGH was purified in a one-step procedure using Gradiflow technology. Clarified culture supernatant containing rhGH was passed through a Gradiflow BF200 and separations were performed over 60 min using three different buffers of varying pH. Using a 50 mM Tris/Hepes buffer at pH 7.5 together with a 50 kDa separation membrane, rhGH was purified to approximately 98% purity with a yield of 90%. This study demonstrates the ability of Gradiflow preparative electrophoresis technology to purify rhGH from mammalian cell culture supernatant in a one-step process with high purity and yield. As the Gradiflow is directly scalable, this study also illustrates the potential for the inclusion of the Gradiflow into bioprocesses for the production of clinical grade rhGH and other therapeutic proteins.  相似文献

A two‐step chromatography process for monoclonal antibody (mAb) purification from clarified cell culture supernatant (cCCS) was developed using cation exchange Multicolumn Countercurrent Solvent Gradient Purification (MCSGP) as a capture step. After an initial characterization of the cell culture supernatant the capture step was designed from a batch gradient elution chromatogram. A variety of chromatographic materials was screened for polishing of the MCSGP‐captured material in batch mode. Using multi‐modal anion exchange in bind‐elute mode, mAb was produced consistently within the purity specification. The benchmark was a state‐of‐the‐art 3‐step chromatographic process based on protein A, anion and cation exchange stationary phases. The performance of the developed 2‐step process was compared to this process in terms of purity, yield, productivity and buffer consumption. Finally, the potential of the MCSGP process was investigated by comparing its performance to that of a classical batch process that used the same stationary phase. Biotechnol.

An IgG1 monoclonal antibody (MAB) was isolated from hybridoma culture supernatant by affinity precipitation with an Eudragit S-100-based heterobifunctional ligand. Affinity binding was performed in a homogeneous aqueous phase at pH 7.5 followed by precipitation of the bound affinity complex by lowering the pH to 4.8. After two washing steps, elution of specifically bound MAB was achieved by incubating the precipitate with 0.1 M glycine.HCl pH 2.5. The influence of elution volume and time on the recovery of active MAB and the overall purification factor were studied. The best conditions enabled the recovery of 50.2% of active MAB with a purification factor of 6.2. A further dialysis against 50 mM Tris.HCl pH 8.0 increased the activity yield and the purification factor to 68.4% and 8.3, respectively. This result showed that part of the antibody activity loss during affinity precipitation was due to a reversible inactivation process, being easily recovered after a refining dialysis step.  相似文献

The report describes the use of 2-mercapto-5-benzimidazolesulfonic acid (MBISA) as a ligand for the separation of antibodies by chromatography. The ligand shows a relatively specific adsorption property for antibodies from very crude biologicals at pH 5.0-5.5. At this pH range most of other proteins do not interact with the resin especially when the ionic strength is similar to physiological conditions. Several characterization studies are described such as antibody adsorption in different conditions of ionic strength, pH and temperature. These properties are advantageously used to selectively capture antibodies from very crude feed stocks without dilution or addition of lyotropic salts. Demonstration was made that the adsorption mechanism is neither based on ion exchange nor on hydrophobic associations, but rather as an assembly of a variety of properties of the ligand itself. Binding capacity in the described conditions ranges between 25 and 30 mg/mL of resin. The sorbent does not co-adsorb albumin (Alb) and seems compatible with a large variety of feedstocks. Quantitative antibody desorption occurs when the pH is raised above 8.5. The final purity of the antibody depends on the nature of the feedstock, and can reach levels of purity as high as 98%. Even with very crude biological liquids such as ascites fluids, cell culture supernatants and Chon fraction II + III from human plasma fractionation where the number of protein impurities is particularly large, immunoglobumins G (IgG) were separated at high purity level in a single step.  相似文献

We evaluated the potential for polyelectrolyte induced precipitation of antibodies to replace traditional chromatography purification. We investigated the impact of solution pH, solution ionic strength and polyelectrolyte molecular weight on the degree of precipitation using the anionic polyelectrolytes polyvinylsulfonic acid (PVS), polyacrylic acid (PAA), and polystyrenesulfonic acid (PSS). As we approached the pI of the antibody, charge neutralization of the antibody reduced the antibody–polyelectrolyte interaction, reducing antibody precipitation. At a given pH, increasing solution ionic strength prevented the ionic interaction between the polyelectrolyte and the antibody, reducing antibody precipitation. With increasing pH of precipitation, there was an increase in impurity clearance. Increasing polyelectrolyte molecular weight allowed the precipitation to be performed under conditions of higher ionic strength. PVS was selected as the preferred polyelectrolyte based on step yield following resolubilization, purification performance, as well as the nature of the precipitate. We evaluated PVS precipitation as a replacement for the initial capture step, as well as an intermediate polishing step in the purification of a humanized monoclonal antibody. PVS precipitation separated the antibody from host cell impurities such as host cell proteins (HCP) and DNA, process impurities such as leached protein A, insulin and gentamicin, as well as antibody fragments and aggregates. PVS was subsequently removed from antibody pools to <1 µg/mg using anion exchange chromatography. PVS precipitation did not impact the biological activity of the resolubilized antibody. Biotechnol.

A simple procedure for the purification of an IgG-type monoclonal antibody by affinity precipitation using Eudragit S-100 is presented. The ligand, a microbial lipase previously used as antigen, was coupled to the polymer at a concentration of 40 mg lipase/g Eudragit. This macroligand was reversibly precipitated by manipulating the pH at values higher and lower than 4.8. The effects of polymer concentration and dilution of hybridoma culture supernatant on the overall precipitation process were evaluated. The best purification factor was achieved with a polymer concentration of 0.1% (w/v) and a supernatant dilution of 1:3. The preliminary studies reported here enabled the purification of a monoclonal antibody in one step with an activity yield (by ELISA) of 50%-55% and a purification factor of ca 6.  相似文献

A preparative scale purification procedure of monoclonal IgM from hybridoma culture supernatant with high protein content is described. The procedure consists of three steps starting with ultrafiltration followed by isoelectric precipitation and gel chromatography. Cells and debris from culture supernatant were removed by microfiltration. The clarified supernatant was concentrated 400-fold in a hollow fibre ultrafiltration apparatus (cut off 100 000 daltons). The concentrate was titrated with dilute histidine/HCl buffer close to the isoelectric point of the IgM. Precipitated proteins were harvested by centrifugation, washed and redissolved. The protein fraction containing the IgM was further purified by gel chromatography on a Sephacryl S300 column. This procedure leads to product recovery of 40% and purity of 99% related to total protein.  相似文献

Polyamine precipitation conditions for removing host cell protein impurities from the cell culture fluid containing monoclonal antibody were studied. We examined the impact of polyamine concentration, size, structure, cell culture fluid pH and ionic strength. A 96-well microtiter plate based high throughput screening method was developed and used for evaluating different polyamines. Polyallylamine, polyvinylamine, branched polyethyleneimine and poly(dimethylamine-co-epichlorohydrin-ethylenediamine) were identified as efficient precipitants in removing host cell protein impurities. Leveraging from the screening results, we incorporated a polyamine precipitation step into a monoclonal antibody purification process to replace the Protein A chromatography step. The optimization of the overall purification process was performed by taking the mechanisms of both precipitation and chromatographic separation into account. The precipitation-containing process removed a similar amount of process-related impurities, including host cell proteins, DNA, insulin and gentamicin and maintained similar product quality in respect of size and charge variants to chromatography based purification. Overall recovery yield was comparable to the typical Protein A affinity chromatography based antibody purification process.  相似文献

Phospholipase D has been purified 680-fold from an acetone powder of savoy cabbage in an overall yield of 30%. The purification involves solubilization of the acetone powder in a Ca2+-containing buffer and subsequent ammonium sulfate fractionation. Gel filtration on Sephadex G-200 and hydrophobic affinity chromatography using a gamma-aminopropane-agarose gel complete the purification. The two chromatographic steps were conducted in buffers containing 50% ethylene glycol, which was necessary in order to maintain stability of the enzyme. Purity was established on the basis of gel electrophoresis and ultracentrifugation. A preliminary kinetic characterization of the enzyme was carried out by using lecithins with short-chain fatty acids below the critical micelle concentration. A complex series of results were obtained which demonstrated the following. (1) The enzyme is quite sensitive to ionic strength, being inhibited at high ionic strength. (2) The pH optimum depends on the concentration of Ca2+ used in the assay. At 0.5 mM Ca2+ the pH optimum is 7.25, but it is 6.0 at 50 mM Ca2+. (3) The effect of substrate concentration at a given pH and ionic strength did not show simple hyperbolic kinetics but rather regions of parabolic and hyperbolic kinetics.  相似文献

This paper presents a sustainable strategy for improving the capture of antibodies by affinity chromatography. A novel biomimetic ligand (4‐((4‐chloro‐6‐(3‐hydroxyphenoxy)‐1,3,5‐triazin‐2‐yl)oxy)naphthalen‐1‐ol) (TPN‐BM) was synthesized using a greener and simple protocol to overcome solubility limitations associated with ligand 22/8, known as artificial protein A. Furthermore, its subsequent immobilization on chitosan‐based monoliths induced by plasma surface activation allowed the design of a fast and efficient chromatographic platform for immunoglobulin G (IgG) purification. The TPN‐BM functionalized monoliths exhibited high‐binding capacity (160 ± 10 mg IgG per gram of support), and a selective capture of monoclonal antibodies directly from mammalian crude extracts in 85 ± 5% yield and 98% of purity. The synthesis of ligand TPN‐BM and the routes followed for monoliths preparation and functionalization were inspired in the green chemistry principles allowing the reduction of processing time, solvents and purification steps involved, turning the integrated system attractive from an economical and chemical point of view.

Due to advances in fermentation technology, it is now possible to obtain fermentation broth with over 30% solids. The high solid content makes the clarification step difficult, especially at large scale. The primary protein recovery step is challenging due to the heterogeneous solution of soluble and insoluble material. In this study, we compare different primary recovery routes and the compatibility with the initial capture chromatography step. The primary recovery routes studied are standard clarification by centrifugation and extraction in aqueous two-phase systems. The compatibility of the feed streams from the different primary recovery steps with the first chromatography step is addressed. An anion-exchange column was used as the first capture column in the purification process. The aqueous two-phase system was composed of a random copolymer of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide (EOPO) in combination with a waxy starch. The target protein in this study was human growth hormone (hGH) produced in recombinant Escherichia coli. The purity of hGH in the top phase after aqueous two-phase extraction was found to be significantly higher than in clarified homogenate supernatant and increased as the EOPO polymer concentration in the aqueous two-phase system increased. Stability of the supernatant and EOPO top phases and hGH were determined by turbidity measurements and LC-MS assay. All of the feed-streams from the primary recovery steps were compatible with the anion-exchange chromatography step; however, the capacity of the resin was strongly dependent on the purity of the load. Different process aspects, e.g., resin capacity, viscosity, purification, and yield of hGH and scalability are compared.  相似文献

In this paper we explore an alternative process for the purification of human antibodies from a Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell supernatant comprising a ligand-enhanced extraction capture step and cation exchange chromatography (CEX). The extraction of human antibodies was performed in an aqueous two-phase system (ATPS) composed of dextran and polyethylene glycol (PEG), in which the terminal hydroxyl groups of the PEG molecule were modified with an amino acid mimetic ligand in order to enhance the partition of the antibodies to the PEG-rich phase. This capture step was optimized using a design of experiments and a central composite design allowed the determination of the conditions that favor the partition of the antibodies to the phase containing the PEG diglutaric acid (PEG-GA) polymer, in terms of system composition. Accordingly, higher recovery yields were obtained for higher concentrations of PEG-GA and lower concentrations of dextran. The highest yield experimentally obtained was observed for an ATPS composed of 5.17% (w/w) dextran and 8% (w/w) PEG-GA. Higher purities were however predicted for higher concentrations of both polymers. A compromise between yield and purity was achieved using 5% dextran and 10% PEG-GA, which allowed the recovery of 82% of the antibodies with a protein purity of 96% and a total purity of 63%, determined by size-exclusion chromatography. ATPS top phases were further purified by cation exchange chromatography and it was observed that the most adequate cation exchange ligand was carboxymethyl, as the sulfopropyl ligand induced the formation of multi-aggregates or denatured forms. This column allowed the elution of 89% of the antibodies present in the top phase, with a protein purity of 100% and a total purity of 91%. The overall process containing a ligand-enhanced extraction step and a cation exchange chromatography step had an overall yield of 73%.  相似文献

Aqueous two-phase partition systems (ATPS) have been widely used for the separation of a large variety of biomolecules. In the present report, the application of a polyethylene glycol/phosphate (PEG/phosphate) ATPS for the separation of anti-HIV monoclonal antibodies 2G12 (mAb 2G12) and 4E10 (mAb 4E10) from unclarified transgenic tobacco crude extract was investigated. Optimal conditions that favor opposite phase partitioning of plant debris/mAb as well as high recovery and purification were found to be 13.1% w/w (PEG 1500), 12.5% w/w (phosphate) at pH 5 with a phase ratio of 1.3 and 8.25% w/w unclarified tobacco extract load. Under these conditions, mAb 2G12 and mAb 4E10 were partitioned at the bottom phosphate phase with 85 and 84% yield and 2.4- and 2.1-fold purification, respectively. The proposed ATPS was successfully integrated in an affinity-based purification protocol, using Protein A, yielding antibodies of high purity and yield. In this study, ATPS was shown to be suitable for initial protein recovery and partial purification of mAb from unclarified transgenic tobacco crude extract.  相似文献
