The standard Akta Explorer high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) system has limitations for the automation of multidimensional protein purification. Here, we describe simple modifications that allow for automated multidimensional purification protocols to extend the possibilities of the Akta three-dimensional purification kit in terms of column number, flexibility of volumes stocked for...

Bromelain is one of the vegetal proteases found in pineapple plant. It has numerous applications in food and pharmaceuticals. This review discussed different bromelain purification techniques which will assist in determining the effect of processing conditions on the purification efficacy. There are four purification techniques to be discussed, namely; reverse micellar system, aqueous two phase...

The generation of clinical good manufacturing practices (GMP)-grade adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors requires purification strategies that support the generation of vectors of high purity, and that exhibit a good safety and efficacy profile. To date, most reported purification schemas are serotype dependent, requiring method development for each AAV gene therapy product. Here, we describe a...

A new passive solar water pasteurization system based on density difference flow principles has been designed, built and tested. The system contains no valves and regulates flow based on the density difference between two columns of water. The new system eliminates boiling problems encountered in previous designs. Boiling is undesirable because it may contaminate treated water. The system with ...

The study of functional RNAs of various sizes and structures requires efficient methods for their synthesis and purification. Here, 23 group I intron variants ranging in length from 246 to 341 nucleotides -- some containing exons -- were subjected to a native purification technique previously applied only to shorter RNAs (<160 nucleotides). For the RNAs containing both exons, we adjusted the or...

Protein purification is often a bottleneck during protein generation for large molecule drug discovery. Therapeutic antibody campaigns typically require the purification of hundreds of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) during the hybridoma process and lead optimization. With the increase in high-throughput cloning, faster DNA sequencing, and the use of parallel protein expression systems, a need for...

Recently, a new simple and fast method for the synthesis of InP quantum dots by using phosphine as phosphorous precursor and myristic acid as surface stabilizer was reported. Purification after synthesis is necessary to obtain samples with good optical properties. Two methods of purification were compared and the surface processes which occur during purification were studied. Traditional precip...

Within the research and development environment, higher throughput, parallelized protein purification is required for numerous activities, from small scale purification of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and antibody fragments for in vitro and in vivo assays to process development and optimization for manufacturing. Here, we describe specific applications and associated workflows of the Protein Ma...

virulence of the opportunistic yeast, candida albieans, involves the interplay of many complex changes including the yeast-hyphae transition, which mainly involves protein changes. cell wall mannoproteins are found to be the main cause of adherence of c. albieans to epithel ial cells in the first step of an infection process. in the present study, cell wall mannoproteins of intact yeast were pu...

Recombinant protein purification is a kind of sensitive and expensive method in genetics engineering. Genetic manipulation leads to the expression of various proteins; it should be isolated with high purity finally. Differed methods for protein purification are categorized, based on cast, quality, Easy work and side effect of protein. In this article, we are investigating his His-tag protein pu...
