Desalt <strong>and</strong>/or transfer purified IgG fractions into a suitable buffer using a desalting column<br />
(see page 134).<br />
Reuse <strong>of</strong> Protein A Sepharose <strong>and</strong> rProtein A Sepharose media depends on the nature <strong>of</strong> the<br />
sample <strong>and</strong> should only be performed with identical samples to prevent cross-contamination.<br />

*Long term refers to the pH interval over which the medium is stable over a long period <strong>of</strong> time without adverse effects<br />
on its subsequent chromatographic performance. Short term refers to the pH interval for regeneration, cleaning-in-place<br />
<strong>and</strong> sanitization procedures.<br />
**Protein A Sepharose 4 Fast Flow <strong>and</strong> rProtein A Sepharose 4 Fast Flow have a higher binding capacity, a more rigid<br />
matrix <strong>and</strong> provide more convenient alternatives to Protein A Sepharose CL-4B which must be rehydrated before<br />
column packing.<br />
Chemical stability<br />
These media <strong>and</strong> columns tolerate high concentrations <strong>of</strong> urea, guanidine HCl <strong>and</strong><br />
chaotropic agents.<br />
Storage<br />
Wash media <strong>and</strong> columns with 20% ethanol (use approximately 5 column volumes for<br />
packed media) <strong>and</strong> store at +4 to +8 °C.<br />
