Abstract
Semaglutide, a second-generation glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA), has been recognized as a first-line therapeutic agent in type 2 diabetes management. The purification of semaglutide precursor peptide (SPP) constitutes a crucial quality-determining step in the biopharmaceutical manufacturing process of semaglutide products. Three macroporous resins (D3520, XAD7HP, and BMKX-4) were screened and characterized. The adsorption thermodynamic and kinetic characteristics of SPP on XAD7HP were analyzed. Adsorption separation conditions of SPP and adsorption/desorption stability of XAD7HP were evaluated. The results indicated that the strong polar carbon-oxygen double bonds in XAD7HP could form hydrogen bonds with the amino groups of SPP. The adsorption process of SPP on XAD7HP was consistent with the Langmuir model and the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. At 25 ℃, the maximum adsorption capacity of SPP on XAD7HP reached 164.21 mg/g, and the recovery rate was 75 %. Desorption efficiency of SPP on XAD7HP was 96.64 % using a 60 % ethanol (v/v) solution, and XAD7HP exhibited excellent stability within 15 adsorption-desorption cycles. This work offered a scalable and stable purification approach for biological peptides that circumvents limitations of traditional non-specific adsorption methods.

Official Journal of the European Federation of Chemical Engineering:
Part C
FBP aims to be the principal international journal for publication of high quality, original papers in the branches of engineering and science dedicated to the safe processing of biological products. It is the only journal to exploit the synergy between biotechnology, bioprocessing and food engineering.
Papers showing how research results can be used in engineering design, and accounts of experimental or theoretical research work bringing new perspectives to established principles, highlighting unsolved problems or indicating directions for future research, are particularly welcome. Contributions that deal with new developments in equipment or processes and that can be given quantitative expression are encouraged. The journal is especially interested in papers that extend the boundaries of food and bioproducts processing.
The journal has a strong emphasis on the interface between engineering and food or bioproducts. Papers that are not likely to be published are those:
• Primarily concerned with food formulation
• That use experimental design techniques to obtain response surfaces but gain little insight from them
• That are empirical and ignore established mechanistic models, e.g., empirical drying curves
• That are primarily concerned about sensory evaluation and colour
• Concern the extraction, encapsulation and/or antioxidant activity of a specific biological material without providing insight that could be applied to a similar but different material,
• Containing only chemical analyses of biological materials.
