What is Protein A Resin? What are the Applications of Protein A Resin?
The mechanism for the degradation
of Protein A resin particles that occurs during continuous chromatographic operation
has been described using a modified shrinking core model (MSCM). The resin
particles that contain the active Protein A ligands within their pores and
serve as the basis of the model fictitiously shrink their boundary layer. It
has been established that the caustic used in the sanitization stage of
chromatography is what makes the Protein A ligand degrade.
Manufacturer-provided Protein A resins have a special caustic stability that
has been used in MSCM to assess ligand degradation. The diffusion constant,
rate constant, stoichiometric factor, and reaction order were among the
semiempirical parameters used in the kinetic model.
For three different resins, the
parameters were calculated from column breakthrough experiments to simulate
continuous Protein
A Resin chromatography. The critical variable for forecasting the
kinetics of degradation has been identified as the reaction order. Three
different resins have different recorded reaction orders, with resin B having
the highest order of 4 and resin C having the lowest order of 1.65. The model
can forecast the effects of caustic on Protein
A Resin performance and showed that, when exposed to 0.1 N and
0.2 N NaOH, the resins A and B underwent minimal degradation, maintaining up to
96% of their binding capacity after 240 cycles.
The degradation model was further
supported by the adsorption study done on resin B, which showed the dynamic
physical and chemical changes occurring throughout the resin's life cycle.
According to the performance data, resin B performs as desired, with higher
reaction order indicating slower resin deterioration, higher binding
capacities, and increased sustenance of this binding capacity for longer
periods of time. It is possible to develop efficient cleaning techniques for
ongoing downstream processing by extending the degradation model.
