Increasing plasmid demand for both production of viral and gene therapies as well as nucleic acid-based vaccines has highlighted bottlenecks in production. One bottleneck is traditional bead-based chromatography as a capture step.

To meet the needs of fast-growing markets, new production solutions are needed. These solutions must enable efficient capture of a diverse range of plasmid types and excellent clearance of bacterial host impurities, such as endotoxin.

Using a comprehensive screening approach, this case study establishes an efficient, intensified plasmid capture using convective anion exchange (AEX) chromatography and ecofriendly detergents, and provides valuable insights to intensified plasmid production.
