Downstream Purification for Microbial Protein Production

High Performance Resins for Microbial Expression Systems

When you need high performance and high throughput on a large scale, POROS® Bulk Chromatography Resins are the industry standard for process-scale bioseparations. Microbial protein production is an important platform for the production of biotherapeutic proteins. POROS has many purifcation tools in both analytical and process tools for the large scale purification of this large scale expression system.  

The New POROSĀ® XS Cation Exchange Resin Delivers a Combination of High Capacity + High Resolution + High Salt Tolerance

Today’s high titer biotherapeutic processes create a host of downstream purification challenges and bottlenecks. Traditional high-high capacity resins fail to achieve high resolution in purification.  The need for a resin that delivers a combination of high capacity, high resolution, and high salt tolerance can lead to increase process efficiency and help enable a faster time to market for the product.

  • Dynamic binding capacity for proteins, greater than 100 mg/mL at 5% breakthrough
  • High resolution using optimized 50 μm particle size for improved impurity clearance
  • Robust salt tolerance that maintains dynamic binding capacity to 150 mM NaCl (15 mS/cm)
