Title:
EXTERNAL GRADIENT CHROMATOFOCUSING
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2004103519
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention provides novel methods for the separation of charged molecules such a proteins according to their isoelectric points (pI's) and includes the systems and buffering compositions employed for isolating charged molecules. The invention further provides for modifications to the above described chromatographic methods that enable the separation of charged molecules exhibiting virtually identical pl's by shifting both the buffer's pKa and the pl's of the eluted charged molecules while they are traversing the ion exchange column.
