The purification of human antibodies in an aqueous two-phase system (ATPS) composed of polyethylene glycol (PEG) 6000 and phosphate was optimised by surface response methodology. A central composite design was used to evaluate the influence of phosphate, PEG and NaCl concentration and of the pH on the purity and extraction yield of IgG from a simulated serum medium. The conditions that maximise the partition of IgG into the upper phase were determined to be high concentrations of NaCl and PEG, low concentrations of phosphate and low pH values. An ATPS composed of 12% PEG, 10% phosphate, 15% NaCl at pH 6 was further used to purify human monoclonal antibodies from a Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) concentrated cell culture supernatant with a recovery yield of 88% in the upper PEG-rich phase and a purification factor of 4.3. This ATPS was also successfully used to purify antibodies from a hybridoma cell culture supernatant with a recovery yield of 90% and a purification factor of 4.1.

Article Synopsis
  • A magnesium-aluminum layered double hydroxide (LDH) was created using a coprecipitation technique from a nitrate solution and transformed into a layered double oxide (LDO) after being heated to 450 °C.
  • During rehydration in a fluoride solution, the LDH's original structure was restored and fluoride ions were absorbed to maintain balance, a finding confirmed by energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS).
  • The study demonstrated that using ethanol during the rehydration process significantly increased fluoride incorporation, and the fluoride release pattern from the material revealed a rapid initial release followed by a slower, prolonged release.

Aqueous two-phase systems (ATPSs) have primarily been developed in the form of emulsions to enhance their utilization in green and biocompatible applications. However, numerous challenges have arisen in forming stable and processable water-in-water (W/W) emulsion systems, as well as in fine-tuning the interconnectivity of their internal structure, which can significantly impact their performance. To effectively address these challenges, we elucidate, for the first time, the root cause of the poor stability of W/W emulsions.

Pesticides used in agriculture can contaminate foods like fruits and vegetables, posing health risks to consumers and highlighting the need for effective residue monitoring. This study explores aqueous two-phase systems (ATPSs) comprising phosphonium or ammonium ionic liquids (ILs) combined with ammonium sulfate as an alternative pre-treatment method for extracting and concentrating the pesticides clomazone, pyraclostrobin, and deltamethrin from strawberry samples. Liquid-liquid equilibrium measurements for each ATPS were conducted, followed by extraction experiments to determine the most efficient systems for pesticide extraction.
