Abstract:

The overall topic of the investigation was the separation of basic proteins by cation exchange displacement chromatography. For this purpose two principal column morphologies were compared for the separation of ribonuclease A and alpha-chymotrypsinogen, two proteins found in the bovine pancreas. These were a column packed with porous particles (Macro-Prep S, 10 microm, 1000 A) and a monolithic column (UNO S1). Both columns are strong cation exchangers, carrying -SO3(-)-groups linked to a hydrophilic polymer support. Poly(diallyl-dimethylammonium chloride) (PDADMAC), a linear cationic polyelectrolyte composed of 100-200 quaternary pyrrolidinium rings, was used as displacer. The steric mass action (SMA) model and, in particular, the operating regime and dynamic affinity plots were used to aid method development. To date the SMA model has been applied primarily to simulate non-linear displacement chromatography of proteins using low molar mass displacers. Here, the model is applied to polyelectrolytes with a molar mass below 20000 g mol(-1), which corresponds to a degree of polymerization below 125 and an average contour length of less than 60 nm. The columns were characterized in terms of the adsorption isotherms (affinity, capacity) of the investigated proteins and the displacer.
