Click chemistry: A route to designing and preparing pseudo-biospecific immunoadsorbent for IgG adsorption

Contribution of the "Click Chemistry" Toolbox for the Design, Synthesis, and Resulting Applications of Innovative and Efficient Separative Supports: Time for Assessment

The last two decades have seen the rapid expansion of click chemistry methodology in various domains closely related to organic chemistry. It has notably been widely developed in the area of surface chemistry, mainly because of the high-yielding character of reactions of the "click" type. Especially, this powerful chemical reaction toolbox has been adapted to the preparation of stationary phases from the corresponding chromatographic supports. A plethora of selectors can thus be immobilized on either organic, inorganic, or hybrid stationary phases that can be used in different chromatographic modes. This review first highlights the few different chemical ligation strategies of the "click" type that are up to now mainly devoted to the development of functionalized supports for separation sciences. Then, it gives in a second part an up-to-date survey of the different studies dedicated to the preparation of click chemistry-based chromatographic supports while highlighting the powerful and versatile character of the "click" ligation strategy for the design, synthesis, and developments of more and more complex systems that can find promising applications in the area of analytical sciences, in domains as varied as enantioselective separation, glycomics, proteomics, genomics, metabolomics, etc.

Benzotriazole-5-carboxylic as a mixed-mode ligand for chromatographic separation of antibody with enhanced adsorption capacity

Mixed-mode chromatography provides a promising strategy for industrial protein purification for its potential merit of balancing efficiency and cost-effectiveness. However, mixed-mode media with satisfactory selectivity and binding capacity towards antibody are still urgently needed. A new type of mixed-mode chromatography resin was prepared using benzotriazole-5-carboxylicas as ligand (BTA MM), and its application in antibody separation was explored. A typical pH-dependent protein binding was observed, and the neutral condition was favorable for antibody adsorption. Dynamic binding capacity of human immunoglobulin G (hIgG) was 57.7 mg/mL at pH 7.4 (10 mM phosphate buffer, containing 150 mM NaCl), while elution with acidic solutions (pH 3-4) could achieve a recovery of more than 85%. Protein adsorption on the resin showed a salt-independent manner, thus it could work under physiological solution conditions, with satisfied antibody selectivity. One-step purification of antibody components from human serum samples could obtain a product with the purity more than 84%. Satisfied performance was also observed when the adsorbent was used for purifying a IgG1-type monoclonal antibody (mAb) from cell culture supernatant. In addition, the benzotriazole adsorbent has been found stable enough to withstand autoclave sterilization and other harsh conditions, including 1 M NaOH, 1 M HCl, and 75% ethanol. The results proved the potential of this type of mixed-mode chromatography medium for industrial antibody purification.

A novel high-capacity immunoadsorbent with PAMAM dendritic spacer arms by click chemistry

A novel immunoadsorbent with polyamidoamine dendritic spacer arms was prepared. Click chemistry can improve the reaction selectivity between the ligands and the support matrix under mild reaction conditions. The designed and prepared immunoadsorbent exhibits excellent adsorption for IgG. The IgG adsorption capacity of Sep-G3-His is superior to those of Sep-triazole-His and protein A immunoadsorbents.
