Well-packed columns, in which the beds are homogeneous and continuous from top to bottom, exhibit the best chromatographic separations. When transferring a downstream process, it's critical to maintain as many control parameters as possible including preparation procedures. Column packing for manufacturing has historically required drastically divergent procedures compared to laboratory scale, which can lead to wide variability in chromatographic beds. Furthermore, the ever-expanding catalog of chromatography media can require highly specialized techniques for packing.

Procedures for packing chromatography columns should be scalable and reproducible as well as flexible in order to allow for modifications to support various types of chromatography media. Bio-Rad InPlace columns are designed to suit packing needs for pilot and manufacturing scale, and the packing protocols are directly scalable because the media bed is consolidated uniformly using axial compression.

Join us in this technical discussion of current challenges and solutions for column packing and how Bio-Rad InPlace columns provide ease-of use and reproducible performance for process columns.

The Audience Will Learn:

• Common types of chromatography columns for downstream processing
• What is Dynamic Axial Compression?
• Packing pressure vs axial compression pressure
• How to develop packing methods for resins with unusual attributes
• Scalability of packing procedures
• Reproducibility of packing performance
