Based on the static and dynamic adsorption of Streamline DEAE, a modified tank-in-series model including particle size distribution was used to describe the adsorption performance of bovine serum albumin in an expanded bed. The calculated results indicated that the suggested model was able to simulate breakthrough curves under various conditions.

rhGH-GST 융합단백질을 사용하여 재조합 대장균 세포 파쇄액으로부터 직접적으로 내포체의 solid-phase 재접힘을 수행할 수 있는 새로운 공정을 개발하였다. 그것은 고체 업자를 제거하는 동시에 초기에 목적딴백질을 흡착 포집할 수 있 는 expanded bed adsorption 크로마토그래피의 장점을 이용한 것이다. 세포 파쇄액 내 용해훤 내포체로부터의 풀린 융합단백질은 expanded bed adsorption 원리에 의해 STREAMLINE DEAE resin에 흡착되고 세포 찌꺼기 등 고체 입자물들은 위 방향 흐름에 의해 효과적으로 제거된다. Urea를 접차적으로 제거함으로써 융합단백질은 고체 matrix 표면에서 재접힘 된 후 염 놓도 구배에 의해 용출된다. 이 새로운 EBA-mediat$\xi$d 재접힘 방법은 응집현상을 획기적으로 줄이고 공정수율윤 향상시킬 뿐 아나라 공정단계 수를 줄일 수 있다. 이 공정은 우리가 알고 있는 한 세계에서 최초로 개발된 공정이며, 현재 single-chain polypeptide, affinity-tagged protein 등과 갈은 다른 행태의 단백질에 EBA를 사용한 재접힘 공정올 적용시키가 위한 연구가 진행되고 있다.

The adsorption of a model protein bovine serum albumin (BSA) in expanded bed chromatography was undertaken by exploiting a commercially available expanded bed column (20 mm i.d.) from UpFront Chromatography and Streamline DEAE $(\rho=1.2g/cm^3)$ from Amersham Pharmacia Biotechnology. The influence of whole yeast cells on the adsorption capacity of column was explored by employing yeast cells in a concentration ranged of 0 to $15\%(w/v)$. Equilibrium isotherms for adsorption of BSA on Streamline DEAE were correlated by using Langmuir equation. The presence of yeast cells resulted in decreased of BSA binding capacity in both batch binding and expanded bed chromatography. Results indicated that the yeast cells act as competitor for proteins to bind to the sites on adsorbents.

재조합 대장균에서 내포체 형태로 발현시킨 LK68을 생물학적 활성을 가진 native한 단백질로 재생시키기 위해서 PBA 크로마토그래피와 EBA 크로마토그래피를 이용한 고체상 재접힘을 수행하였다. 내포체와 세포파쇄액을 시작물질로 하여 재접힘 공정을 수행하였으며 총 단백질 회수율과 재접힘 수율을 비교한 결과, EBA 공정이 기존의 액상 재접힘이나 PBA를 이용한 재접힘 공정에 비하여 우수함을 확인하였다. 또한 Iysine binding, RP-HPLC, SEC-HPLC, Ellman method 등을 사용하여 분석한 결과 재접힘된 LK68이 native LK68와 동등함을 확인하였다. 본 연구를 통해 EBA 크로마토그래피를 이용한 재접힘 방법은 재접힘 단계의 수율을 향상시킬 뿐 아니라 공정 단계, 시간 등을 감소시켜 공정 성능을 전체적으로 향상시킬 수 있음을 제시하였다.

In this paper, we investigated the development of a simplified and rapid primary capture step for the recovery of M13 bacteriophage from particulate-containing feedstock. M13 bacteriophage, carrying an insert, was propagated and subsequently purified by the application of both conventional multiple steps and expanded bed anion exchange chromatography. In the conventional method, precipitation was conducted with PEG/NaCl, and centrifugation was also performed. In the single step expanded bed anion exchange adsorption, UpFront FastLine$\_$TM/20 (20mm i.d.) from UpFront Chromatography was used as the contactor, while 54$m\ell$ (H$\_$o/=15cm) of STREAMLINE DEAE (p=1.2 g/㎤) from Amersham Pharmacia Biotechnology was used as the anion exchanger. The performance of the two methods were evaluated, analysed, and compared. It was demonstrated that the purification of the M13 bacteriophage, using expanded bed anion exchange adsorption, yielded the higher recovery percentage, at 82.86％. The conventional multiple step method yielded the lower recovery percentage, 36.07％. The generic application of this integrated technique has also been assessed.

Mixed-mode hydrophobic/ionic matrices exhibit a salt-tolerant property for adsorbing target protein from high-ionic strength feedstock, which allows the application of undiluted feedstock via an expanded bed process. In the present work, a new type of mixed-mode adsorbent designed for expanded bed adsorption, Fastline $PRO^{\circledR}$, was challenged for the capture of nattokinase from the high ionic fermentation broth of Bacillus subtilis. Two important factors, pH and ion concentration, were investigated with regard to the performance of nattokinase ad-sorption. Under initial fermentation broth conditions (pH 6.6 and conductivity of 10 mS/cm) the adsorption capacity of nattokinase with Fastline PRO was high, with a maximum capacity of 5,350 U/mL adsorbent. The elution behaviors were investigated using packed bed adsorption experiments, which demonstrated that the effective desorption of nattokinase could be achieved by effecting a pH of 9.5. The biomass pulse response experiments were carried out in order to evaluate the biomass/adsorbent interactions between Bacillus subtilis cells and Fastline PRO, and to demonstrate a stable expanded bed in the feedstock containing Bacillus subtilis cells. Finally, an EBA process, utilizing mixed-mode Fastline PRO adsorbent, was optimized to capture nattokinase directly from the fermentation broth. The purification factor reached 12.3, thereby demonstrating the advantages of the mixed-mode EBA in enzyme separation.

Hepatitis B core antigen(HBcAg) is an important serological marker used in the diagnosis of hepatitis B virus(HBV) infections. In the current study, a fast and efficient preparative purification protocol for truncated HBcAg from Escherichia coli disruptate was developed. The recombinant HBcAg was first captured by anion exchange expanded bed adsorption chromatography integrated with a cell disruption process. This online capture process has shortened the process time and eliminated the "hold-up" period that may be detrimental to the quality of target protein. The eluted product from the expanded bed adsorption chromatography was subsequently purified using size-exclusion chromatography. The results showed that this novel purification protocol achieved a recovery yield of 45.1% with a product purity of 88.2%, which corresponds to a purification factor of 4.5. The recovered HBcAg is still biologically active as shown by ELISA test.

A dense, pellicular UpFront adsorbent ($p=1.5 g/cm^3$, UpFront Chromatography, Cophenhagen, Denmark) was characterized in terms of hydrodynamic properties and protein adsorption performance in expanded bed chromatography. Cibacron Blue 3GA was immobilised into the adsorbent and protein adsorption of bovine serum albumin (BSA) was selected to test the setup. The Bodenstein number and axial dispersion coefficient estimated for this dense pellicular adsorbent was 54 and $1.63{\times}10^{-5}m^2/s$, respectively, indicating a stable expanded bed. It could be shown that the BSA protein was captured by the adsorbent in the presence of 30% (w/v) of whole-yeast cells with an estimated dynamic binding capacity $(C/C_o = 0.01)$ of approximately 6.5 mg/mL adsorbent.

The influence of whole yeast cells $(0{\sim}15%\;w/v)$ on the protein adsorption performance in dye-ligand chromatography was explored. The adsorption of a model protein, bovine serum albumin (BSA), was selected to demonstrate this approach. The UpFront adsorbent $(p=1.5\;g/cm^3)$ derivatised with Cibacron Blue 3GA and a commercially available expanded bed column (20 mm i.d.) from UpFront Chromatography, Denmark, were employed in the batch binding and expanded bed operation. The BSA binding capacity was demonstrated to not be adversely affected by the presence of yeast cells. The dynamic binding capacity of BSA at a $C/C_0=0.1$ biomass concentration of 5, 10, 15% w/v were 9, 8, and 7.5mg/mL of settled adsorbent, respectively.

The bed stability of Streamline DEAE (p = 1.2 g/mL) in a 20mm (i.d.) glass expanded bed contactor, and its performance on the recovery of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) from unclarified yeast homogenate were investigated. A residence time distribution study showed that a stable expanded bed was achieved. The theoretical plate and Bodenstein numbers determined were 25 and 53, respectively. A recovery yield of 87% and purification factor of 4.1 were achieved in the operation using 5% (w/v) biomass concentration feedstock. The performance of the anion exchange EBAC was still considerable good at a biomass concentration as high as 15% (w/v).
