Book Protein Bioseparation Using Ultrafiltration

Download or read book Protein Bioseparation Using Ultrafiltration written by Raja Ghosh and published by World Scientific Publishing Company. This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ultrafiltration (UF) is a pressure-driven separation process in which membranes are used for a broad variety of applications, ranging from the processing of biological macromolecules to wastewater treatment. It has significant advantages over competing separation technologies. Food and biotechnological applications of UF account for nearly 40 percent of the current total usage. In the case of high value therapeutic protein and DNA products, the separation and purification costs can be as high as 80 percent of the total cost of production. Therefore, it makes economic sense to develop cost-effective and scaleable purification processes for such products. UF is used for protein concentration, protein desalting and protein fractionation (such as protein-protein separation). Concentration and desalting processes are technologically less demanding and have been widely used in the bioprocess industry for quite some time. Protein fractionation, on the other hand, is a challenging proposition and is definitely a more recent development. This text focuses primarily on protein fractionation.

Book Protein Fractionation Using Ultrafiltration System for Differents Module Configurations

Download or read book Protein Fractionation Using Ultrafiltration System for Differents Module Configurations written by Emy Syafinas Hamid @ Osman and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Protein bioseparation is an important yet expensive activity especially in biotechnology industry. The production of protein is growth along with rapid commercialization and demand. Unfortunately, the industry having problem in term of cost and the production as the cost is extremely high but the production rate is low. The most effective way to solve this problem is by using membrane as the medium of separation. In this study, the effects for different mode of operations of ultrafiltration membranes - batch, single stage and two stages forward cascade. Amersham Quick Lab cross flow system was used to separate lysozyme by using 30 kDa polyethersulfone ultrafiltration membranes. For this research, the lysozyme is obtained from the cheapest source which is chicken egg white solution. Lysozyme is a very important protein in pharmaceutical field in order to produce a vaccine to prevent bacteria that inhabit the intestinal tract. In order to determine the most efficient configurations, the constant parameters are set for all configurations. The value of pH must be 10, the transmembrane pressure (TMP) is 1.0 bar, and the volume feed is 960 ml with the ratio of chicken egg white to sodium chloride 0.2 M is 1:31. The effective configuration can be determined by comparing the permeate flux, concentration of lysozyme in both permeate and retentate solution at 5 minutes after the separation process occurred and measurement of water flux. The analysis procedure is done using the UV-VIS spectrometer at wave length equal to 595 nm. The most effective configuration is two stages forward cascade which has the highest average permeate flux of 74.4 L/m2.h. Moreover, it also has percentage for concentration of lysozyme in permeate solution equal to 84% which is the biggest percentage of all configurations and the lowest value of water flux measurement after separation process compare to the benchmark value at TMP equal to 1.0 bar. The second configuration then is single stage and followed by batch at third place.

Book Engineering Aspects of Membrane Separation and Application in Food Processing

Download or read book Engineering Aspects of Membrane Separation and Application in Food Processing written by Robert W. Field and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-06-26 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Engineering Aspects of Membrane Separation and Application in Food Processing presents an overview and introduction to a wide range of membrane processes, their unique characteristics and challenges. In the food industry, as in many industries, membranes have an environmental advantage over conventional processes that they displace, because they are less energy intensive. The processing at near-ambient conditions also retains flavors and nutritional value. These advantages, together with significant reductions in the cost of membrane modules, augers well for their future not only in the dairy industry but in other parts of the food industry, such as alcohol processing, animal product processing, and fruit and vegetable processing. Chapters address a wide range of membranes separations in the food and beverage industries, and applications are provided that will be of value not only to food engineers but also to process engineers working in other areas. The processing of food is now a highly interdisciplinary science, and anyone concerned with food processing will benefit from reading this book and understanding what membrane processes of the twenty-first century have to offer.
