Abstract
The immobilized metal affinity membrane (IMAM) with modified regeneration cellulose was employed for purification of penicillin G acylase (PGA). For studying PGA adsorption capacity on the IMAM, factors such as chelator surface density, chelating metal, loading temperature, pH, NaCl concentration and elution solutions were investigated. The optimal loading conditions were found at 4 °C, 0.5 M NaCl, 32.04 μmol Cu 2+ per disk with 10 m M sodium phosphate buffer, pH 8.5, whereas elution conditions were: 1 M NH 4Cl with 10 m M sodium phosphate buffer, pH 6.8. By applying these chromatographic conditions to the flow experiments in a cartridge, a 9.11-fold purification in specific activity with 90.25% recovery for PGA purification was obtained. Meanwhile, more than eight-times reusability of the membrane was achieved with the EDTA regeneration solutions.
