  • Publication number: 20200277330
    Abstract: A method for purifying a protein comprising an antibody, antibody fragment, or immunoglobulin single variable domain, from a solution containing at least one contaminant by superantigen chromatography comprising: a) adsorbing the protein to the superantigen immobilized on a solid support; b) removing the at least one contaminant by contacting the immobilized superantigen containing the adsorbed protein with a first wash buffer comprising an aliphatic carboxylate; and c) eluting the protein from the superantigen immobilized on the solid support.

  • Patent number: 6610822
    Abstract: There is disclosed a process for purifying a natural product using a two-phase, multi-solvent system followed by vacuum concentration and back extraction. The method allows for the removal of impurities by controlling the polarity balance of a two-phase system by manipulating the proportions of the four solvents and subsequently the relative distribution of the product versus the impurities.
