This 3-day training course will provide an introduction to downstream processing with hands-on practical and theory in the field.
The general aims of this course are to enable a non-expert in the field of downstream processing:
To be able to understand what a bioprocess is
To have the necessary theoretical and practical knowledge to understand what separation techniques to use at which stage of a process and for what purpose
To understand and perform Tangential Flow Filtration (TFF), packing of a 20 cm diameter chromatography column and to run a preparative chromatgraphy purification with the AKTA chromatography from Cytivia
To provide the basis for more advanced practical development to become an expert in the field (if desired)
To enable people in USP to transfer to DSP
This training program includes theoretical and practical parts on Tangential Flow Filtration (TFF): Ultrafiltration and Diafiltration; as well as theoretical and practical parts on chromatography: Packing and characterization of a 20 cm diameter column, Hands on experience with preparative chromatography.
