Protein A chromatography is an excellent technique for the purification of monoclonal antibodies. However, the presence of Protein A in therapeutic monoclonal antibody preparations due to leaching has been linked with toxicity in animals and humans. Two sandwich ELISAs were developed to monitor Protein A column leaching: (1) rabbit anti-Protein A for capture and anti-Protein A F(ab')2-HRP for detection; and (2) rabbit anti-Protein A for capture and anti-Protein A-biotin for detection. The biotin ELISA is sensitive to the subnanogram range. In addition, these assays were used to develop DEAE and gel filtration chromatography techniques that substantially reduce Protein A levels in monoclonal antibodies purified by Protein A chromatography.
蛋白A层析是纯化单克隆抗体的一项出色技术。然而,由于浸出导致治疗性单克隆抗体制剂中存在蛋白A,这已与动物和人类的毒性相关联。开发了两种夹心酶联免疫吸附测定法(ELISA)来监测蛋白A柱的浸出情况:(1)用兔抗蛋白A进行捕获,用抗蛋白A F(ab')2-辣根过氧化物酶(HRP)进行检测;(2)用兔抗蛋白A进行捕获,用抗蛋白A-生物素进行检测。生物素ELISA对亚纳克范围敏感。此外,这些检测方法被用于开发二乙氨基乙基(DEAE)和凝胶过滤层析技术,这些技术能大幅降低通过蛋白A层析纯化的单克隆抗体中的蛋白A水平。
