Abstract
Immunoaffinity chromatography (IAC) with selective antibodies immobilized on polymeric monolithic disk columns enables selective isolation of biomacromolecules from human plasma, while asymmetrical flow field-flow fractionation (AsFlFFF or AF4) can be used for further fractionation of relevant subpopulations of biomacromolecules (e.g., small dense low-density lipoproteins, exomeres, and exosomes) from the isolates. Here we describe how the isolation and fractionation of subpopulations of extracellular vesicles can be achieved without the presence of lipoproteins using on-line coupled IAC-AsFlFFF. With the developed methodology, it is possible to have fast, reliable, and reproducible automated isolation and fractionation of challenging biomacromolecules from human plasma with a high purity and high yields of subpopulations.
