Abstract
Process for the purification of high molecular weight peptides, which have a tendency to associate, by ion exchanger chromatography in aqueous buffered solvents on acid or basic ion exchangers, which comprises dissolving non ionic detergents in the buffered solvents.
Claims1
A method for purifying a high molecular weight peptide selected from the group consisting of insulins, insulin analogues, insulin derivatives, natural adrenocorticotropic hormone, growth hormone, glucagon, and glycoproteid hormones of the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland, which peptides have a tendency to associate, which method comprises subjecting a buffered solution of said peptide to ion exchange chromatography on an acidic or basic ion exchanger, said buffered solution additionally comprising a non-ionic detergent.
