Tuning selectivity in cation-exchange chromatography applied for monoclonal antibody separations, part 2: Evaluation of recent stationary phases

摘要

In this second part of the series, recently commercialized cation exchanger stationary phases were systematically investigated for their capabilities to separate therapeutic monoclonal antibodies. It was demonstrated that the different combinations of stationary and mobile phases result in diverse retention, selectivity and efficiency. Hence, the whole phase system (combination of stationary and mobile phase) should be considered when developing a method. In addition, retention behavior is mAb dependent and should be individually optimized.
