| Cellufine Ion Exchangers are based
on spherical particles manufactured from crosslinked cellulose. Each
offers excellent flow properties, mechanical stability and
chemical resistance. These ion exchangers are ideally suited
for both laboratory and process scale chromatography of proteins, peptides
and other biomolecules. Applications include the purification
of antibodies, growth factors, albumin, enzymes, nucleic
acids, etc. |

Flow Properties
Pressure flow curves for Cellufine Ion Exchangers in laboratory
and process scale columns.
|
Mechanical Resistance
Cellufine Ion Exchangers are semi-rigid due to the crosslinked
structure which gives high mechanical resistance and results in
two advantages; no generation of fines during the preparation
of the column and higher operating bed height without concern
of bed collapse common to many soft gels. |
Chemical Resistance
Cellufine is chemically stable. The media can be washed with
a variety of solutions and shows no loss in capacity, resolution
or flow rates.
