Abstract
The recovery of proteins solubilised inside reversed micelles is generally a low yielding process. We have studied three methods for recovery of lysozyme. The protein laden organic phase was contacted with solutions of varying pH. Greater than 95% recovery was achieved at pH values close to the isoelectric point (10.9). The use of 2.5 M KCl gave close to 100% recovery of lysozyme. The organic phase was passed onto a ion exchange matrix. This resulted in disruption of the reversed micelle releasing 60–80% of the protein into the eluent.
