How to develop a protein purification strategy
Protein purification is rarely a one-size-fits-all process. From recombinant proteins and antibodies to complex protein assemblies, developing an effective purification strategy requires balancing purity, yield, activity, and workflow efficiency.
This SelectScience eBook explores how to develop a structured protein purification strategy using the capture, intermediate purification, and polishing (CiPP) framework. Learn how protein properties, purification objectives, and chromatography selection influence protocol design, and discover practical approaches for combining techniques to maximize separation power while minimizing sample handling.
Through expert guidance, workflow examples, and technique selection tools, you'll gain a clearer understanding of affinity chromatography, ion exchange chromatography, hydrophobic interaction chromatography, and size exclusion chromatography, helping you build more robust and efficient purification workflows.
