摘要:
The present invention relates to a separation matrix comprised of a support to the surfaces of which polymer chains have been coupled, wherein each polymer chain presents recurring proton-donating groups and at least the surface of the support is substantially hydrophilic. In the most advantageous embodiment, the support is porous cross-linked agarose, the polymers are poly(acrylic acid) and the proton-donating groups are carboxyl groups. The matrix is useful e.g. to remove PEG from pegylated and/or native compounds in a liquid. Accordingly, the invention also encompasses a method, such as a chromatographic method, wherein the separation matrix according to the invention is used, for example as a pre-treatment of a reaction mixture that comprises unreacted PEG, pegylated proteins and native proteins.

The present invention is a method of producing a chromatographic separation matrix, wherein porous polymeric particles comprised of two layers with different properties are prepared in a two-phase system by (a) providing porous polymeric particles with reactive groups on their surfaces; (b) washing said particles with a first solvent and draining the particles to enclose a first phase; (c) wetting the outer layer of the particles by adding a second solvent, which is essentially insoluble in the first solvent; (d) reacting the reactive groups in the outer layer by adding a reagent, which is essentially non-reactive in the first solvent; and (e) coupling of chromatographic binding groups to the reactive groups in the inner layer. The invention also encompasses a porous polymer particle suitable for use as a chromatographic separation matrix and a process of separation, wherein a matrix according to the invention is used.

Method for continuously producing droplets by producing a coherent layer of a liquid/melt of even thickness by means of centrifugal action along the entire periphery of a rotating disk (13, 113), liquid/melt being supplied to the disk around its entire axis of rotation from means (12, 112) and leaving the disk as individual droplets which are then collected. The means (12, 112) distributing the liquid/melt onto the disk (13, 113) has according to the invention essentially the same speed and direction of rotation as the disk, and the liquid/melt undergoes under the influence of centrifugal action circumferentially a spreading and change in velocity across the disk (13, 113) in contact with the same.

The present invention is a surface-modified base matrix comprised of a porous polymeric base matrix onto which branched hydrophilic polyhydroxy-functional polymers have been covalently attached, wherein the polyhydroxy-functional polymers are hyperbranched polymers presenting a degree of branching (DB) of at least about 0.2 and each polymer is tethered to the base matrix at two or more points. The present matrix can for example be a cross-linked carbohydrate material, such as agarose, and the hyperbranched hydrophilic polymer can e.g. be a copolymer of epichiorohydrin and a sugar. The invention also relates to a method of surface-modification of a porous base matrix by activating functional hydroxy groups thereon and contacting the activated matrix with a hydrophilic hyperbranched hydroxy-functional polymer.

The present invention is a method of purifying recombinant human serum albumin (rHSA) from a solution, which method comprises to subject a cell culture supernatant (CCS) comprising rHSA cation exchange on a bimodal high salt tolerant matrix; hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC); and anion exchange. The bimodal high salt tolerant cation exchange matrix used enables per-forming a purification of a cell culture supernatant directly, in the sense that no further dilution thereof is necessary. Due to its high binding capacity, said bimodal cation exchange matrix also allows use of a smaller amount of matrix as compared to a corresponding conventional cation exchanger matrix. Accordingly, the present invention allows substantial savings as regards volumes and consequently operation costs.

The present invention relates to a method of separating a compound from a liquid, which method comprises providing a separation matrix comprising at least one uncharged ligand; providing a liquid wherein the compound to be separated is present in a positively charged state; contacting said matrix with said liquid to adsorb the compound; and removing the liquid. The uncharged ligands possess a quadrupole or dipole moment, allowing for a cation-p interaction between the compound and the ligand. The present invention also encompasses the use of a separation matrix, which comprises an uncharged group that possesses a quadrupole or dipole moment, in said method.
