This paper presents a method for determining the optimum operating parameters for affinity and ion-exchange chromatographic columns when used for protein purification. Based on a mathematical model developed as part of our association investigations, computer programs have been developed to describe the dynamic relationships acting within the chromatographic system. Two basic operating parameters, the flow-rate and the effluent concentration at which the adsorption stage is terminated, can be optimised to give a maximum production rate. The sample loading volume and the processing time then can be determined. The effect of washing conditions on the production rate and the yield is also discussed. Examples are given for a specific system where the optimisation is based on the yield and the percentage utilisation of the column capacity. Contour plots are generated to aid the determination of the range of controlling parameters, and to guide further system design.</p>","PeriodicalId":15508,"journal":{"name":"Journal of chromatography","volume":"646 1","pages":"81-9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/s0021-9673(99)87009-5","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"19392101","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Series of linear malto-oligosaccharides were found particularly suitable for both the study of the effect of the operating conditions on the separation and the investigation of the relationship between the electrophoretic mobility and the molecular size of the homologues. The electrophoretic mobility of the malto-oligosaccharide conjugates was found to be a linear function of the molecular mass to the negative two-thirds power. The sugar derivatives employed here carry three negative charges due to the presence of the dissociated sulfonic acid groups even at strongly acidic pH. Therefore, the analytes can migrate in the electric field without interference by electroendosmotic flow and/or wall adsorption in uncoated silica capillaries at low pH. As a result, the separation of these carbohydrate conjugates can be carried out under such conditions with high speed and efficiency in free solution, i.e., without an anticonvective medium such as a gel or a viscous polymer solution. Appropriate use of triethylammonium phosphate buffer, pH 2.5, as the background electrolyte improves not only the reproducibility, but also the efficiency and speed of the separation.

In the isocratic mode a critical composition of the mobile phase was found at which all proteins regardless of their molecular mass migrate with equal velocity and have a capacity factor equal to the phase ratio (VP/V0), i.e., the same capacity factor as a marker of total accessible volume would have in steric exclusion chromatography. It is shown that steric exclusion conditions are never achieved in gradient HPLC. In the first (adsorption stage) of gradient elution where the separation takes place the velocity of a protein increases until it becomes equal to the velocity of the desorbing solvent front at a critical distance X0 from column entrance. Strong broadening is characteristic of this stage. In the second (critical) stage the protein travels the remaining distance (L-X0) with the velocity of the solvent. A definition of X0 is given allowing one very simple calculation of the minimum permissible column length as a function of gradient steepness, mobile phase velocity and protein adsorption parameter. When x = X0 the protein zone has the smallest dispersion. Making L < X0 is especially disadvantageous, as it leads to anomalous bandspreading.
