General description

Butyl Sepharose™ 4 Fast FLow is a well established, standard aliphatic hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) medium for capture and intermediate purification of larger proteins.

Application

Butyl Sepharose™ 4 Fast FLow is part of the Sepharose™ Fast FLow HIC platform, which has been an industrial standard for HIC chromatography during recent decades.
Butyl Sepharose™ 4 Fast FLow is based on cross-linked 4% Agarose. The aliphatic ligand is immobilized to the base matrix with an ether linkage. The ligand contains no charged groups, making true hydrophobic interaction chromatography possible, without interfering ionic effects.

Butyl Sepharose™ 4 Fast FLow is available in a range of different bulk pack sizes and convenient pre-packed formats for easy scale-up and process development. As member of the BioProcess media range, Butyl Sepharose™ 4 Fast FLow meets industrial demands with security of supply and comprehensive technical and regulatory support.

Features and Benefits

  • Standard aliphatic HIC media based on Sepharose™ Fast FLow base matrix derivatized via uncharged, chemically-stable ether linkages.
  • Optimized for the separation of larger Proteins in capture and intermediate purification steps
  • BioProcess medium supported for industrial applications and well-established in approved processes
  • The hydrophilic nature of the base matrix ensures Low levels of non-specific binding.

Salt Selection and Buffer Preparation

The correct choice of salt and salt concentration are the most important parameters that influence capacity and final selectivity. The objective is to optimize conditions to achieve the required selectivity to bind the target protein(s) and ensure that the majority of impurities pass through the column.
