Affinity Membrane Filtration Technology Services
Affinity membrane filtration technology reacts water-soluble or non-water-soluble polymeric affinity carriers with target products in a specific and reversible manner, followed by staggered flow filtration using membranes. Affinity membrane filtration is a new purification technology combining bioaffinity technology and membrane separation, and its research involves the intersection of biochemistry, chemical engineering and biological engineering and other frontier fields, and is now applied to the separation and purification of a variety of biological macromolecules. Affinity membrane filtration technology makes full use of the specific and reversible affinity adsorption of ligands on carriers to target components, and the advantages of ultrafiltration membrane separation for easy mass production, while overcoming the shortcomings of ultrafiltration membrane separation technology for large molecules with similar molecular masses that cannot be separated.
Factors Affecting Affinity Membrane Filtration
A ligand with medium binding capacity is selected and needs to have sufficient contact area. It should also be inexpensive, highly specific, stable under affinity and elution conditions, undamaged under high shear, easily recoverable and non-toxic.
The choice of carriers includes non-water-soluble carriers and water-soluble carriers.

Notes on affinity membrane elution
Changing the conditions, such as the composition of the eluent, pH, ionic strength, and temperature, causes dissociation of the complex and collects the dissociates for further processing. When purifying biomolecules by affinity membrane chromatography, the composition, pH and ionic strength of the buffer used, as well as the dosing rate and temperature during operation, the elution method, and the composition and nature of the eluent are key factors that affect the purity and even the success or failure of the product. Especially when using ligands with low specificity, special attention should be paid to the selection of purification conditions and elution methods. There are specific elution and non-specific elution methods. Specific elution means adding substances with stronger affinity for the ligand to the eluent to displace the target protein. In contrast, changing the salt concentration in the buffer, pH, temperature, adding denaturant, is non-specific elution.
