QB3/GE Class:
Separation and Purification Strategies for Biotechnology Products
Stanley Hall, QB3-UC Berkeley
This intensive course on separation and purification strategies will provide both theory and technique to members of the biotech industry and academic community. Participants will understand the principles and develop strategies for separating and purifying proteins, recombinant DNA products, and monoclonal antibodies. Hands-on laboratory exercises include cell disruption, centrifugation, membrane filtration, chromatography techniques utilizing ÄKTA Explorer, and column packing. The exercises allow participants to integrate theory with practice and to understand practical issues in purification of biotechnology products.
