It can lead to decreased product yield, diminished biological activity, and suboptimal product quality. Proteolytic degradation or protein truncation is observed in various expression hosts and is mostly attributed to the activity of proteases released by host cells. Since these clipped proteins can impact pharmacokinetics and immunogenicity in addition to potency, they need to be appropriately controlled to ensure consistency of product quality and patient safety. A chromatography step for the selective removal of clipped proteins from an intact protein was developed in this study. Poly(ethylenimine)-grafted anion- exchange resins (PolyQUAT and PolyPEI) were evaluated and compared to traditional macroporous anion-exchange and tentacled anion-exchange resins. Isocratic retention experiments were conducted to determine the retention factors (k′) and charge factors (Z) were determined through the classical stoichiometric displacement model. High selectivity in separation of closely related clipped proteins was obtained with the PolyQUAT resin. A robust design space was established for the PolyQUAT chromatography through Design-Of-Experiments (DoE) based process optimization. Results showed a product recovery of up to 63% with purity levels >99.0%. Approximately, one-log clearance of host cell protein and two-logs clearance of host cell DNA were also obtained. The newly developed PolyQUAT process was compared with an existing process and shown to be superior with respect to the number of process steps, process time, process yield, and product quality.","PeriodicalId":20393,"journal":{"name":"Preparative Biochemistry and Biotechnology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77027627","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}

For this purpose, we have developed a rapid method to analyze flavonoids, based on a coupling reaction between ABTS and flavonoid mediated by peroxidase. The present method can be used to detect and measure flavonoids with hydroxyl moieties on A- or B-rings, not adjacent to methoxy or oxo substitutions. The visible spectrum of the ABTS-flavonoid complex, the calibration curve (within the range 5-50 μM) and the molar absorption coefficients for isosakuranetin, isonaringin, rhoifolin, hyperoside, rutin, hesperetin, quercetin, kaempherol and naringenin are given. The method has been applied to complex culture media and is sensitive, accurate, quick and easy to apply.
