Abstract: The present invention describes a simple purification process for recombinant human serum albumin. The process results in highly purified protein with limited number of purification steps. The broth containing human albumin is clarified by centrifugation and microfiltration, diafiltered and captured by cation exchange chromatography by a process that allows 140-230 mg of albumin to be captured per ml of resin. Product related impurities are removed by hydrophobic interaction chromatography, optimised to allow 87-97% recovery in flow through mode. The final series of processes are so combined that there is easy transition from one step to the next with minimal interventions and adjustments. The entire process of purification is completed within two days from harvest to final product. Thus a cost-effective process with improved recovery of protein at each step is developed. The purified human serum albumin is analyzed for purity and shows physicochemical characteristics that are similar to standard albumin.
