Abstract

The hydrogel process is a different form of ultrafiltration and has been used to separate biological molecules. In this study, the gel pore size was predicted by pulse NMR technique and neural network using a data base obtained from gel filtration chromatography and diffusion experiment. Recombinant alkaline phosphatase expressed in insect cells was concentrated 1.5 times by hydrogel ultrafiltration by swelling at 20°C and collapsing at 35°C at 53–65% separation efficiency and 78–83% enzyme recovery. Wild and recombinantAutographa californica nuclear polyhedrosis viruses (AcNPV) were also concentrated 1.4 and 1.6 times of the feed solution at 48.5 and 60.0% separation efficiency, respectively. Hydrogel ultrafiltration appears to be an attractive alternative for the concentration of AcNPV and recombinant proteins from insect cells.
