PROCESS FOR THE PURIFICATION OF HUMAN GROWTH HORMONE POLYPEPTIDES USING AFFINITY RESINS COMPRISING SPECIFIC LIGANDS

摘要

The present invention relates to a novel process for the purification of growth hormone polypeptides, e.g. recombinant human Growth Hormone. The process utilizes an affinity resin comprising a solid phase material having immobilized thereto one or more low-molecular weight synthetic ligands. The affinity resins enable the separation of Growth Hormone from closely related proteins.
