Cellufine - Gel Filtration - GCL-2000 |
|
Gel Filtration Chromatography Media Cellufine |

 |
GCL-2000 |
|
Gel Filtration, or size exclusion chromatography, has proven to be a simple and effective purification method for proteins and other biomolecules. However, the traditionally slow flow rates and limiting resolving power of most gel filtration media have restricted its usefulness. These problems, inherent to the packings, existed not only at the laboratory preparative scale but especially at process scale. The limited throughput of gel filtration columns has often created a significant process bottleneck.
Cellufine GCL media overcome these limitations. The mechanical strength of the spherical cellulose matrix allows high flow rates, even in large industrial columns.
|
Features |
• Rigid spherical particles
• Outstanding mechanical strength
• Hydrophilic
• High pore volume

• Supplied preswollen
• High chemical resistance
• Autoclavable at 121 °C for 30 minutes
|
Benefits |
• High flow rate compatibility even in large diameter process columns
• May be pumped or stirred without fines generation
• Low non-specific adsorption and high recovery
• Good capacity
• Optimize selectivity to required molecular weight range
• No time-consuming swelling procedures required
• Usable with all common salts, detergents, chaotropic agents, organic solvents
• Depyrogenation
• Sterilizable
• Regulatory Support
