Chromatography Methods
Therapeutic proteins in this industry are recovered from complex sources and have to be very pure and efficacious to be approved for use as medicinal products. Use of chromatographic techniques helps to purify the biotechnology proteins to a state of very high purity. Each chromatographic technique has its advantages and disadvantages. One single chromatography step is seldom capable of giving a product of the desired quality in terms of homogeneity and purity. The different types of chromatography procedures that are used in downstream processing

Then the bound protein of interest is eluted off using an elution buffer of increasing ionic strength or of a different pH. Either weakens the attachment of the protein of interest to

HIC is finding dramatically increased use in production chromatography. Antibodies are quite hydrophobic and therapeutic antibodies are the most important proteins in the biopharmaceutical pipeline. Since the molecular mechanism of HIC relies on unique structural features, it serves as a nonredundant option to ion exchange, affinity, and gel filtration chromatography. It is very generic, yet capable of powerful resolution. Usually HIC media have high capacity and are economical and stable. Adsorption takes place in high salt and elution in low salt concentrations.

Pervaporation
Pervaporation is a membrane process, in which a liquid mixture is brought in contact with a membrane at the upstream side and the permeate is removed as a vapor at the permeate side. The driving force for the process is established by reducing the relative pressure at the downstream side by either the use of an inert carrier gas or an applied vacuum. The vapor is usually obtained as a liquid in a condenser.
