Overview
Chromatographic separation techniques for purification and analysis of biological molecules and pharmaceuticals.
Our biochromatography research focuses on developing novel stationary phases and separation methods for the purification of proteins, nucleic acids, and other biomolecules. We emphasize creating materials with high selectivity, capacity, and biocompatibility.
Research Areas
Affinity Chromatography
Development of affinity ligands and supports for highly selective purification based on specific biological interactions.
- Protein A/G mimetic ligands
- Metal chelate affinity chromatography (IMAC)
- Dye-ligand affinity
- Molecularly imprinted affinity materials
- Cryogel affinity columns
Ion Exchange Chromatography
Charged stationary phases for separation based on electrostatic interactions.
- Strong and weak exchangers
- Mixed-mode ion exchangers
- Monolithic ion exchange columns
Size Exclusion Chromatography
Separation based on molecular size for protein characterization and purification.
- Polymer-based SEC materials
- Aggregate analysis
- Molecular weight determination
Hydrophobic Interaction Chromatography
Separation based on hydrophobicity differences between biomolecules.
- Novel HIC ligands
- Protein refolding applications
