Chromatography is a technique widely used in the purification of biopharmaceuticals, and generally consists several chromatographic steps. In this work, Hydrophobic Interaction (HIC) investigated as polishing step for therapeutic proteins. Adsorption mechanisms hydrophobic interaction chromatography are still not completely clear limited amount published data available. addition to new on adsor...

Hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) a powerful technique used for separation and purification of biomolecules. It was described for the first time by Shepard & Tiselius (1949), using the term “salting-out chromatography”. Later, Shaltiel & Er-el (1973) introduced the term “hydrophobic chromatography”. Finally, Hjerten (1973) described this technique as “hydrophobic interaction chromato...

Recent progress in top-down proteomics has led to a demand for mass spectrometry (MS)-compatible chromatography techniques to separate intact proteins using volatile mobile phases. Conventional hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) provides high-resolution separation of proteins under nondenaturing conditions but requires high concentrations of nonvolatile salts. Herein, we introduce a s...

This paper describes a method for the plasmid DNA purification, which includes an ammonium sulphate precipitation, followed by hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) using Phenyl Sepharose 6 Fast Flow (low sub). The use of HIC took advantage of the more hydrophobic character of single stranded nucleic acid impurities as compared with double-stranded plasmid DNA.

A method for the recovery and fractionation of whey proteins from a whey protein concentrate (80%, w/w) by hydrophobic interaction chromatography is proposed. Standard proteins and WPC 80 dissolved in phosphate buffer with ammonium sulfate 1 M were loaded in a HiPrep Octyl Sepharose FF column coupled to a fast protein liquid chromatography (FPLC) system and eluted by decreasing the ionic streng...
