Method for purifying protein using amino acid

Abstract

In large-scale purification of proteins such as antibodies, an economic high-purity purification method is required. The present invention relates to a method for purifying a protein, including one or more chromatographic processes, in which an amino acid; or a dipeptide, an oligopeptide, or a polyamino acid thereof is included in a buffer solution used in at least one chromatographic processes (equilibration buffer, wash buffer, and elution buffer), thereby purifying a high-purity protein with a very small quantity of the impurity (e.g., polymers or host cell proteins).
