Abstract: Herein is reported a method for the purification or production of a therapeutic polypeptide using the same depth filter multiple times, i.e. a depth filter which has been used before and has been regenerated. Reported herein is a method for purifying or producing a therapeutic polypeptide, characterized in that the method comprises the following steps: a) filtering an aqueous composition containing said therapeutic polypeptide and impurities through a depth filter, recovering the flow-through and thereby obtaining said purified therapeutic polypeptide, b) contacting said depth filter with a regeneration solution and thereby regenerating the depth filter, and c) repeating steps a) and b) one or more times.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides purification platforms comprising a depth filter step and/or a hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) step. Also disclosed herein are methods of using the purification platforms described herein and compositions obtained therefrom, such as pharmaceutical compositions.

Abstract: The current invention reports a method for purifying an antibody by reducing the content of a host cell protein. The method employs a wash step with a low conductivity aqueous solution in an affinity chromatography.

Abstract: Herein is reported a method for purifying a polypeptide comprising the steps of i) applying a solution comprising the polypeptide to an ion exchange chromatography material, and ii) recovering the polypeptide with a solution comprising a denaturant and thereby purifying the polypeptide, whereby the ion exchange chromatography material comprises a matrix of cross-linked poly (styrene-divinylbenzene) to which ionic ligands have been attached, and wherein the solution comprising the polypeptide applied to the ion exchange chromatography material is free of the denaturant and the polypeptide adsorbed to the ion exchange chromatography material is recovered with a solution comprising a denaturant at a constant conductivity.

Abstract: Herein is reported a method for the purification of a protein comprising erythropoietin and a single poly (ethylene glycol) residue from reaction by-products or not reacted starting material by a cation exchange chromatography method. It has been found that by employing a cation exchange Toyopearl® SP-650 chromatography material and employing a second wash step with an increased pH value compared to the first wash step a fusion protein of erythropoietin and a single poly (ethylene glycol) residue can be obtained in a single step with high purity and yield and suitability for large scale applications.
