Abstract

Extracellular vesicle (EV) isolation from conditioned cell culture medium has been a challenging topic. It is particularly difficult to obtain pure and intact EVs at a large scale. The commonly used methods such as differential centrifugation, ultracentrifugation, size exclusion chromatography, polyethylene glycol (PEG) precipitation, filtration, and affinity-based purification each have their advantages and limitations. Here, we present a tangential-flow filtration (TFF) based, multi-step purification protocol that combines filtration, PEG precipitation, and Capto Core 700 multimodal chromatography (MMC) to isolate EVs at high purity from large volumes of cell culture conditioned medium. Inserting the TFF step before PEG precipitation removes proteins, which may aggregate in subsequent steps and co-purify with EVs.
