Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention relates to a method to improve chromatography beads. More closely, the invention relates to a novel method for production of dextran-containing porous media and chromatography media produced with this method. In the method, the chromatography media is subjected to dextranase-treatment leading to improved pressure-flow properties of the media.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A method to produce a chromatography medium, the chromatography medium comprising porous beads coupled with dextran inside the pores and on the bead surface, the method comprising subjecting the chromatography medium to dextranase treatment. 2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the dextranase is coupled to a support particle. 3 . The method according to claim 2 , wherein the support molecule is larger than the pores of the chromatography media to be treated. 4 . The method according to claim 2 , wherein the support molecule comprises natural or synthetic chromatography beads or PEG (poly ethylene glycol). 5 . The method according to claim 2 , wherein the support particle is magnetic. 6 . The method according to claim 4 , wherein the dextranase-coupled support particle may enter the pores of the chromatography medium. 7 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the chromatography medium is made of natural or synthetic resins. 8 . The method according to claim 7 , wherein the chromatography medium is made of agarose. 9 . The method according to claim 8 , wherein the agarose is cross-linked. 10 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the dextran coupled to the chromatography medium is provided with a ligand, such as an ion exchange, affinity, hydrophobic interaction or multimodal ligand. 11 . A chromatography medium produced according to the method of claim 1 . 12 . A chromatography media according to claim 11 , wherein the beads are made of cross-linked agarose and the dextran is not provided with any ligands.
