Solid phase extraction (SPE) disks are manufactured by introducing a series of components and/or liquid suspensions into a mold and evacuating the liquid to form a cohesive filter or SPE disk. After all the free liquid has been substantially removed, the SPE disk is removed from the mold and dried. SPE disks are for use in analytical chemistry procedures.

Provided herein are compositions, methods and uses that relate to or result from providing separation media having at least one flocculant ligand covalently attached to a base surface or support, and the separation and/or purification of biological molecules using the separation media of the present disclosure. Certain embodiments provide separation media which under certain modes of operation, enhance the separation of the molecule of interest from impurities.

The present invention provides a process for preparing a functionalised polymeric chromatography medium, which process comprises (I) providing two or more non-woven sheets stacked one on top of the other, each said sheet comprising one or more polymer nanofibres, (II) simultaneously heating and pressing the stack of sheets to fuse points of contact between the nanofibres of adjacent sheets, and (III) contacting the pressed and heated product with a reagent which functionalises the product of step (II) as a chromatography medium.

Herein is reported a method for the purification of a protein comprising erythropoietin and a single poly (ethylene glycol) residue from reaction by-products or not reacted starting material by a cation exchange chromatography method. It has been found that by employing a cation exchange SP Sephacryi™ S 500 HR chromatography material conditioned to a conductivity of 21 mS/cm and a linear gradient elution a fusion protein of erythropoietin and a single poly (ethylene glycol) residue can be obtained in a single step with high purity and yield.

The invention relates to the isolation or extraction of exosomes.

A chromatography method in which a gaseous, liquid or supercritical mobile phase containing species to be separated is circulated through a packing. The packing includes a plurality of capillary ducts extending in the packing between an upstream face through which the mobile phase enters the packing and a downstream face through which the mobile phase leaves the packing. A continuous medium permeable to molecular diffusion extends between the ducts, including a porous organic gel or an organic liquid with at least one network of connected pores, the size of which is greater than two times the molecular diameter of at least one species to be separated. The at least one species has a diffusive path between the ducts.

Methods for purifying multispecific antibodies on interest (MAIs) that co-engage at least two different antigens or epitopes (also referred to targets, used interchangeably throughout), from compositions comprising the MAI and parental homodimeric antibody species are provided, as well as reagents which may be used to practice such methods.
