Re: [ccp4bb] Devices Suitable to Concentrate Protein Solutions in Liter Scale
If you want to just reduce the volume/concentrate proteins, you can use Millipore's Stirred cell (high-output stirred cell, 2,000 ml capacity).

Re: [ccp4bb] Devices Suitable to Concentrate Protein Solutions in Liter Scale
may be diafiltration devices might work for you. the membranes are kind of expensive but we had used this effectively to reduce the volume of cell culture media where we had secreted proteins in large volumes of culture media. here is a link http://www.spectrapor.com/lit/hfdial.pdf padayatti On Sun, Sep 6, 2009 at 10:16 PM, Wu, Zhongrenz...@vitaerx.com wrote: If you want to just reduce the volume/concentrate proteins, you can use Millipore’s Stirred cell (high-output stirred cell, 2,000 ml capacity).

Re: [ccp4bb] Devices Suitable to Concentrate Protein Solutions in Liter Scale
Hi, Could you not carry out Ammonium Sulfate precipitation to concentrate the protein? I never did it myself so I have no idea if it's practical in this case. Maybe it's still worth mentioning, though.

Re: [ccp4bb] Devices Suitable to Concentrate Protein Solutions in Liter Scale
1. Yes, Ion Exchange (not just Anion as we don't know anything about their protein (unless I missed an email)) is a great capture step if you have the time to mess about. 2. When I have been refolding recently, after the refolding step we have found that a good, old-fashioned Ammonium sulphate cut step (well, two of them) has worked really, really well. It takes a bit of tinkering, but it really does work a treat. Email me if you want to know about inner design of such an experiment. We are working with an untagged version of the protein as we use yet another affinity step that doesn't require it... see below. 3. If you know something about your protein, you might be able to use a different affinity step to cature it also. Heparin - Your protein may interact with a heparin column, even if you have no reason to think it will. Blue HP - Actually, the only reason I mention this one is that it has worked so well for one of the proteins I am working on at the mo. GE reckon if your protein has an affinity for nucleotides, nicotinamides blah blah blah it might interact with your protein. This can be a really powerful capture column if it does. 4. A great tag to capture it would be a Z-tag. cheers charlie An anion exchange column with a large enough bed volume might be used to concentrate the protein.
