Memoria. Reporte final de Actividades (de 2013 a Diciembre 2016) del Proyecto INTENSO. Elaboración: Febrero-Abril 2017 Fecha entrega: Abril 2017This pillar is based on the developing a novel Hybrid Disposable Cartridge (HDC) useful for the recovery and purification of natural as well as recombinant proteins and other biomolecules. Current industrial chromatographic process involves intensive pre-chromatographic filtration steps, in addition to constrains in mass-transfer exchange as a consequence of diffusion-based materials. The integrative and intensification approach of this pillar involves the study of application of HDC, as cost effective methodology for the downstream processing of bio-molecules. This novel approach wants to take advantage on merging existing textile technology with material and polymer science. The core of this technology is the development of a composite material based on cellulose fibers with protein adsorptive capabilities.
