Journal ArticleDOI

Aqueous two-phase systems: A viable platform in the manufacturing of biopharmaceuticals.

TL;DR: This review evaluates several alternatives to the currently established platforms for the downstream processing biopharmaceuticals, with main focus on aqueous two-phase extraction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Affinity partitioning of human antibodies in aqueous two-phase systems

TL;DR: The partitioning of human immunoglobulin in a polymer-polymer and polymer-salt aqueous two-phase system (ATPS) in the presence of several functionalised polyethylene glycols (PEGs) was studied and a 60-fold increase in selectivity was observed when compared to the non-functionalised systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Affinity-enhanced purification of human antibodies by aqueous two-phase extraction

TL;DR: The partition of human antibodies in polyethylene glycol (PEG)/dextran aqueous two-phase systems (ATPS) was investigated using charged, hydrophobic and affinity ligands, either in the form of free ligands or as phase forming components.
Journal ArticleDOI

Integrated process for the purification of antibodies combining aqueous two-phase extraction, hydrophobic interaction chromatography and size-exclusion chromatography.

TL;DR: A process incorporating aqueous two-phase extraction, hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) and size-exclusion chromatography for the purification of human immunoglobulin G (IgG) from a Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell supernatant is evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Downstream processing of antibodies: single-stage versus multi-stage aqueous two-phase extraction.

TL;DR: A predicted optimised scheme of a counter-current multi-stage aqueous two-phase extraction of human immunoglobulin G (IgG) to the PEG-rich phase was described and the corresponding liquid-liquid equilibrium (LLE) data determined.
