Compositions and methods are provided that simplify isolation of proteins of interest from serum or plasma. Finely divided silica or a similar lipid/lipoprotein binding solid is used in combination with a protein precipitating agent to generate a solution that includes the protein of interest and that can be applied to chromatography media without resulting in significant fouling of the media. The method is particularly suitable for isolation of immunoglobulin G.

A process for the preparation of pharmaceutically acceptable immunoglobulin compositions from plasma-derived immunoglobulin fractions which allows the parallel preparation of immunoglobulin compositions enriched in IgG, IgM and IgA. In this process, immunoglobulin contained in Cohn fraction I/II/III or Kistler Nitschmann fraction A+I is resolubilized at conductivities of at least 1 mS/cm, and following removal of contaminating protein the resolubilized immunoglobulin is subjected to anion exchange chromatography to obtain IgG- and IgM/IgA-enriched immunoglobulin compositions. The IgG-enriched immunoglobulin composition is further subjected to treatment with a cation exchange material to obtain an immunoglobulin composition having a reduced properdin content.

The invention is a high-throughput voltage screening crystallographic device and methodology that uses multiple micro wells and electric circuits capable of assaying different crystallization condition for the same or different proteins of interest at the same of different voltages under a humidity and temperature controlled environment. The protein is solubilized in a lipid matrix similar to the lipid composition of the protein in the native environment to ensure stability of the protein during crystallization. The invention provides a system and method where the protein is transferred to a lipid matrix that holds a resting membrane potential, which reduces the degree of conformational freedom of the protein. The invention overcomes the majority of the difficulties associated with vapor diffusion techniques and essentially reconstitutes the protein in its native lipid environment under “cuasi” physiological conditions.
