Expanded Bed Adsorption (EBA) Chromatography Procedure

 

A EBA Chromatography Column is used to represent an equipment resource typically used to host an expanded bed chromatography procedure with a main objective to purify proteins. In the EBA column the buffer is feed from below causing the packed resin beads in the column to fluidize and form a stable concentration gradient along the height of the column. Resin beads used in this column are usually of varying sizes, ranging from 50 to 400 mm. The procedure can be executed in a batch/semi continuous mode only.
