Recovery & Purification Development

PhotographCytovance’s purification development laboratory is equipped to develop new purification processes; improve and trouble-shoot existing purification steps; and systematically evaluate process parameters to improve overall process economics. In addition, studies to support regulatory fillings for viral validation, stability, and product characterization are performed.

Key process equipment includes a computer controlled AKTAExplorer and fraction collector, chromatography columns, laminar flow hood, electrophoresis cells, semi-dry blotting apparatus, IEF system, TFF and stirred concentration cells.

Services include:

  • Develop new recovery/purification processes
  • Improve and trouble-shoot existing unit operations
  • Column chromatography -- affinity, HIC, IEX, SEC
  • TFF, ultrafiltration
  • Viral clearance studies
  • Scale-up/technology transfer
