Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Adsorptive media for chromatography, particularly ion-exchange chromatography, derived from a shaped fiber. In certain embodiments, the functionalized shaped fiber presents a fibrillated or ridged structure which greatly increases the surface area of the fibers when compared to ordinary fibers. Also disclosed herein is a method to add surface pendant functional groups that provides cation-exchange or anion-exchange functionality to the high surface area fibers. This pendant functionality is useful for the ion-exchange chromatographic purification of biomolecules, such as monoclonal antibodies (mAbs).

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A process for purifying a sample containing a biomolecule and negatively charged bacteriophage phi6, comprising providing a sample containing the biomolecule and the negatively charged bacteriophage phi6; contacting said sample with an axially compressed bed of cut nylon staple fiber media, wherein said fibers have a cross-section comprising a body region defining a substantially longitudinal axis, and have a plurality of projections extending outwardly from said body region, and wherein said fibers have imparted thereon a polymeric functionality, wherein the surfaces of said polymeric functionality are modified with pendant trimethylammonium groups; washing said fibers to remove unbound species; and eluting said negatively charged bacteriophage phi6, thereby to purify said sample.
