Application of commercial ultrafiltration membranes for protein purification by high performance countercurrent membrane purification (HPCMP)

Biotechnology Progress, EarlyView.
Abstract High performance countercurrent membrane purification (HPCMP) has emerged as a promising diffusive separation strategy for the purification of recombinant proteins and monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). However, prior studies employed dialysis membranes, which are designed for diffusive separations but have not been validated for biopharmaceutical ...
