  • Title: Hydrophobic interaction ligand selection and scale-up of an expanded bed separation of an intracellular enzyme from Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

    Journal: J Chromatogr A; 2002 Aug 30; 968(1-2):121-8. PubMed ID: 12236495.
    Abstract:
    A prototype Streamline-Phenyl matrix was evaluated in a hydrophobic interaction mode for the direct recovery of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) from yeast cell homogenate. At 5% breakthrough of ADH, a yield of 100% was obtained for a dynamic expanded bed capacity of 240 U(ADH)/ml matrix with a purification factor of 9.2. This compared with a dynamic capacity of 3013 U(ADH)/ml matrix for the packed bed equivalent and a purification factor of 18. In both systems the purification factor was found to increase simultaneously with a decrease in yield as the load of homogenate or breakthrough of ADH was increased. The expanded bed mode of operation conferred considerable robustness with respect to process fouling. No loss in yield was seen over five cycles of repeat loading with an unclarified homogenate. By contrast the packed bed media showed a decrease in yield from 86 to 56% over the same period. Successful scale up of the expanded bed protocol for a 20% breakthrough was demonstrated over a fourfold increase in column diameter. The application of hydrophobic interaction chromatography mediated expanded bed adsorption and its scale-up is discussed in the context of large-scale operations.
