Abstract
Size Exclusion Chromatography (SEC) has been widely used to assess aggregate content in bio-pharmaceutical drugs such as monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), and is routinely used during method development and release testing. Electrostatic interactions between protein analytes and SEC column resin are commonly observed besides the primary mode of size separation during SEC method development, which needs to be minimized. An effective method to minimize electrostatic interactions is through increasing mobile phase (MP) salt concentration. However; increasing salt concentration in MP will induce increased hydrophobicity of proteins and increased hydrophobic interactions between protein and stationary phase, as demonstrated for mAb-A in this paper, a protein with high surface aggregation propensity (SAP) score and an isoelectric point near mobile phase pH. In this work, a systematic, Design of Experimental approach was taken to identify optimal SEC method conditions including column type, buffer composition, ionic strength, pH and additives. The optimized method was demonstrated to be robust towards small changes in method operation conditions and was qualified for use in product release and stability studies. Additionally, biophysical and computational studies were performed to elucidate the role of MP additives, which supports the use of arginine as an essential additive to minimize undesirable hydrophobic interactions between proteins and stationary phase.

Abstract
We have explored a novel dual-function stationary phase which combines both strong cation exchange (SCX) and hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) characteristics. The novel dual-function stationary phase is based on porous and spherical silica gel functionalized with ligand containing sulfonic and benzyl groups capable of electrostatic and hydrophobic interaction functionalities, which displays HIC character in a high salt concentration, and IEC character in a low salt concentration in mobile phase employed. As a result, it can be employed to separate proteins with SCX and HIC modes, respectively. The resolution and selectivity of the dual-function stationary phase were evaluated under both HIC and SCX modes with standard proteins and can be comparable to that of conventional IEC and HIC columns. More than 96% of mass and bioactivity recoveries of proteins can be achieved in both HIC and SCX modes, respectively. The results indicated that the novel dual-function column could replace two individual SCX and HIC columns for protein separation. Mixed retention mechanism of proteins on this dual-function column based on stoichiometric displacement theory (SDT) in LC was investigated to find the optimal balance of the magnitude of electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions between protein and the ligand on the silica surface in order to obtain high resolution and selectivity for protein separation. In addition, the effects of the hydrophobicity of the ligand of the dual-function packings and pH of the mobile phase used on protein separation were also investigated in detail. The results show that the ligand with suitable hydrophobicity to match the electrostatic interaction is very important to prepare the dual-function stationary phase, and a better resolution and selectivity can be obtained at pH 6.5 in SCX mode. Therefore, the dual-function column can replace two individual SCX and HIC columns for protein separation and be used to set up two-dimensional liquid chromatography with a single column (2DLC-1C), which can also be employed to separate three kinds of active proteins completely, such as lysozyme, ovotransferrin and ovalbumin from egg white. The result is very important not only to the development of new 2DLC technology with a single column for proteomics, but also to recombinant protein drug production for saving column expense and simplifying the process in biotechnology.

Abstract
Size exclusion chromatography (SEC) is the most widely used method for aggregation analysis of pharmaceutical proteins. However SEC analysis has a number of limitations, and one of the most important ones is protein adsorption to the resin. This problem is particularly severe when using new columns, and often column preconditioning protocols are required. This review focuses on the role that addition of various cosolvents to the mobile phase plays in suppressing that protein adsorption. Cosolvents such as salt, amino acids, and organic solvents are often used for this purpose. Because the protein interaction with the resin surface is highly heterogeneous, different cosolvents affect the protein adsorption differently. We will summarize the various effects of cosolvents on protein adsorption and retention and describe the mechanism of the cosolvent effects.

Abstract
Seven chromatographic columns were evaluated for the recovery of 48V-radiolabelled vanadate. Further, the behaviour of vanadate (H2VO4-) was studied on a size-exclusion column Superose 12 as a function of (a) buffer salt molarity, (b) different buffer salts, (c) different buffers and (d) organic solvents added to the buffer. As opposed to the unsatisfactory recovery of V-compounds on other columns, we recovered the vanadium quantitatively. We observed that in most cases vanadate eluted after the total volume of the Superose 12 column. This indicates a non-ideal behaviour of vanadate. However, through this non-ideal behaviour it was possible to separate low-molecular-mass bound (Mr<5000) and unbound vanadium which would not be possible under normal behaviour. A possible explanation for this non-ideal behaviour of vanadium is put forward. The method has been successfully applied for the fractionation of different vanadium species in rat spleen homogenate.

Abstract
The charge regulated slab model is used to evaluate the salt dependence of the retention of Staphylococcal nuclease A and its mutants in cation-exchange chromatography. An important feature of this work is that the net charge of the proteins is varied in two different ways: (a) by changing the eluent pH so that the charges are created by protonation and (b) by point mutation at position 116. Since the structure of Staphylococcal nuclease and the mutants are known, the pH dependence of retention data of the different mutants gives detailed insights into the retention mechanism. Experimental results show that the salt dependence of retention is affected more strongly by changes of the eluent pH than by point mutations. This implies that the amino acid in position 116 has only a moderately strong interaction with the stationary phase surface and that a patch on one side of the protein surface is mainly responsible for the electrostatic interaction with the surface.

Abstract
Since chromatography of ions is a widely used technique in analytical chemistry a basic understanding of the retention mechanism is important. The principles of the different retention models that have been proposed are examined in this paper. The focus is on those models that are derived from the physical chemistry of charged surfaces immersed in an electrolyte solution. In the first two sections the theory for the electrical double layer and the Donnan potential are presented together with experimental results from surface and colloid chemistry. In Section 3 a comparison between stoichiometric and non-stoichiometric models is made. In this section the physical meaning of the retention factor is also examined. The Donnan model and the different double layer models developed for ion exchange chromatography of small ions are discussed in Section 4. The next section presents the corresponding models that have been developed for ion pair chromatography and compares them with the experimental findings. The theoretical modifications needed when going from small ions to ionic macromolecules are discussed in the last section and the developed models are compared with the experimental results.
