Expanded Bed Chromatography / Edition 1

by B. Mattiasson

Overview

Expanded bed adsorption chromatography is a novel processing technique for the purification of biomolecules, combining clarification, concentration and initial purification in one step. By such an integration it is possible to reduce the number of steps in the purification process, to shorten the processing time and to improve the yields.
The technology is new, and interesting developments have taken place concerning the adsorbents, the processing technology and potential applications. Both small-scale laboratory processes and larger industrial processes are being developed.
Expanded bed chromatography is one of the most exciting new developments in downstream processing in recent years. The technology will be a standard procedure when new biotechnological processes are being developed.
