Abstract

See full text

A method for producing a purified hemoglobin product includes loading a hemoglobin solution onto an anion exchange chromatography column. At least one tris(hydroxymethyl) aminomethane acetate buffer solution is injected into the column. The buffer solution has a pH lower than that of the column, whereby a purified hemoglobin product elutes from the column. In one embodiment, the hemoglobin solution initially can be equilibrated at a pH of greater than about 8.7. In another embodiment, contaminants can be removed by equilibrating the column with at least about eleven column void volumes of buffer solution at an intermediate pH of between about 8.2 and about 8.6, to thereby form a stepped pH gradient. In still another embodiment, all buffer solutions employed are tris(hydroxymethyl) aminomethane acetate.
