This application note describes a model system in which Enbrel® protein, a fusion protein consisting of TNF receptor and IgG1 Fc, is purified from a dilute sample matrix for further analytical characterization. The resulting purified protein was subjected to N-linked glycan structural analysis by mass spectrometry (MS) and its aggregation state was assessed by analytical ultracentrifugation (AUC). This data set serves as a model to demonstrate the capability of the POROS® CaptureSelect™ product line for the affinity purification of biomolecules to enable further analytical characterization. This note provides recommended operating conditions that will help maximize purification performance and column lifetime. However, since target molecules and sample solutions differ widely, operating conditions should be optimized to accommodate the specific needs of each application.
