Anal Bioanal Chem. 2023 Jan;415(1):45-65. doi: 10.1007/s00216-022-04325-8. Epub 2022 Sep 21.

Abstract

Membrane chromatography is mainly used for the separation and purification of proteins and biological macromolecules in the downstream processing process, also applications in sewage disposal. Membrane chromatography is recognized as an effective alternative to column chromatography because it significantly improves chromatography from affinity, hydrophobicity, and ion exchange; the development status of membrane chromatography in membrane matrix and membrane equipment is thoroughly discussed, and the applications of protein capture and intermediate purification, virus, monoclonal antibody purification, water treatment, and others are summarized. This review will provide value for the exploration and potential application of membrane chromatography.

Keywords: Membrane chromatography; Membrane ligand; Membrane modules; Purification.
