TAPPIR® - A Novel Aqueous Two-Phase Extraction Technology

TAPPIR® - Tunable Aqueous Polymer Phase Impregnated Resins

However ATPE has no large-scale industrial applications yet. This is based substantially on very long phase separation times resulting from low interfacial tensions and low density differences between the phases producing intensive and stable emulsions. This causes an increased footprint of the required mixer/settler devices or the application of additional equipment such as energy consuming ce...

Aqueous Two-Phase Extraction Advances for Bioseparation

Aqueous two-phase extraction (ATPE), unique liquid-liquid extraction, involves a transfer of solute from one aqueous phase to another. ATPE includes polymer–polymer type and polymer–salt type systems for the recovery of proteins. The protein must be recovered in a highly purified form in order to improve its quality, decrease energy consumption, reduce waste and minimize costs. To acquire the h...

Aqueous Two-phase Extraction of Invertase from Baker’s Yeast

Extraction of Cephalexin Using Aqueous Two-Phase Systems Composed of Cholinium Chloride and K3PO4

Cephalexin is an important antibiotic. It is very significant to determine an appropriate method for the extraction of this valuable antibiotic for industrial applications. Aiming at developing an efficient method for the extraction of cephalexin, the partitioning of cephalexin has been evaluated in aqueous two-phase system, including cholinium chloride and potassium phosphate. The effect of th...
