Summary: | In this study, the effects of different sample preparation techniques on the separation of monoclonal antibody IgG1 were investigated experimentally. Monoclonal IgG1 was obtained from hybridoma cell line TB/C3 transfected with bcl-2 carrier plasmid, which was grown in serum-free medium. Three different pre-treatment techniques prior to Protein G affinity chromatography have been used in order to concentrate and partial purify the monoclonal antibody. The pre-treatments researched in this paper are precipitation of the antibody by ammonium sulfate, dilution of the antibody in the binding buffer of affinity chromatography and ultrafiltration through an Amicon Ultra-15 filter with molecular weight cut-off at 100 kDa. Purification through direct application of the antibody onto the Protein G affinity column without pre-treatments was used as a control method. The results indicate that the ultrafiltration through an Amicon filter was an effective method for both concentration and partial purification of the antibodies in laboratory scale. |
