Chromatography resin for detergent removal
- Binds detergent and solvent used in viral inactivation processes (TnBP and Triton® X-100).
- High dynamic binding capacity for many different detergents.
- High recovery of proteins.
- High adsorption capacity for small hydrophobic molecules.
- Stable in acidic, polar organic and oxidizing solutions.
SDR HyperD is a composite sorbent that combines a silica-bead moiety filled with a three-dimensional cross-linked hydrophobic polymer. The SDR HyperD sorbent structure has been engineered for optimal solvent/detergent retention. The high specific surface area (200 m2/g) of the porous silica translates into a high capacity for detergent and solvents. The particle size distribution (40-100 µm), the silica bead pore size, and the polymer have all been optimized for retention of solvents and detergents used in viral inactivation processes (i.e., Tri-n-Butyl Phosphate (TnBP) and Triton® X-100).1 SDR HyperD sorbent is also very effective at removing detergents typically used in protein solubilization for other applications (i.e., ASB-14, CHAPS and SDS).
The suggested mechanism of action for adsorption of Triton X-100 is illustrated in Figure 1. Triton X-100 interacts both with the silica surface (formation of hydrogen bonds between the silanols and the polyoxyethylene chain) and with the hydrophobic polymer moiety. TnBP interacts only with the hydrophobic polymer. The adsorption mechanism can utilize either or both the silica moiety and the hydrophobic polymer. The adsorption of Triton X-100 is proportional to the silica surface area, whereas the adsorption of TnBP is linked to binding to the organic polymer moiety. In addition to the chemical interaction of the detergent with the surface, the bead itself has small pores such that only molecules >10 kD will enter the bead. This means that some peptides might also bind to this resin. SDR has proven useful for rapid detergent removal even when the detergent concentration is above the CMC and micelles are present. This is probably related to the equilibrium between micelle and free detergent molecules and/or a disruption of micelle structure on contact with the bead. The properties of SDR HyperD sorbent are summarized in Specifications and the adsorption mechanism is represented below in Figure 1.
