Precipitation
Dr. Deepak Bhusare
Department of Microbiology
DB, ACS College, Bhokar.
Introduction
•Protein precipitation is widely used in downstream processing of biological
products.
•Hydrophilic and hydrophobic amino acid residues on the protein's surface.
•High hydrophobic amino acid have low solubility in an aqueous solvent.
•Charged and polar surface residues interact with ionic groups in the solvent and
increase the solubility of a protein.
Protein precipitation
•Nucleation phase: submicroscopic sized protein aggregates, or particles,
are generated.
• Particle size 0.1 µm to 10 µm.
Solvents Precipitation
•Ethanol or Methanol to a solution may cause proteins in the solution
to precipitate.
•the proteins can aggregate by attractive electrostatic and dipole forces.
•Important parameters: Temperature less than 0 °C to
avoid denaturation, pH and protein concentration in solution
Non-ionic hydrophilic polymers Precipitation
•Polymers: Dextrans and Polyethylene Glycols, are frequently used to
precipitate proteins.
•Attract water molecules away from the solvation layer around the
protein.
•This increases the protein–protein interactions and enhances
precipitation
Isoelectric (pI) precipitation
•At high pI protein possess negative charge.
•At low pI protein possess positive charge.
•The pI of most proteins is in the pH range of 4–6
•Mineral acids, such as hydrochloric and sulfuric acid are used as
precipitants
Thank You
