A review and discussion.Whereas many companies use process-scale reversed-phase chromatog. for purifications, misconceptions about denaturation and cost have kept others from using this efficient purification tool.The authors address many of the misconceptions surrounding process use of reversed-phase separationsTheir goal is to show that RP-HPLC should take its place among the practical tools that process development scientists use to develop robust, cost-effective purifications for biopharmaceuticals.Several biopharmaceuticals currently on the market or in the pipeline benefit from reversed-phase processes.
