The invention discloses a method for purifying capsular
polysaccharide, which comprises the following steps of: centrifuging the capsular bacterium
fermentation liquid, collecting the supernatant liquid, carrying out
ultrafiltration concentration and
ethanol precipitation, and collecting the supernatant liquid; carrying out
ethanol precipitation, collecting precipitates, and redissolving injection water; adding
protease for enzymolysis, and carrying out
ultrafiltration on
protein hydrolysates; adding hexadecyl trimethyl
ammonium bromide and NaCl of which the
mass percent final concentration is 0.2-0.3%, centrifuging, and collecting the supernatant liquid; adding hexadecyl trimethyl
ammonium bromide and NaCl of which the
mass percent final concentration is 0.1-0.15%, centrifuging, collecting precipitates, and dissolving the precipitates; carrying out
ethanol precipitation, collecting precipitates, and redissolving injection water; and carrying out
ultrafiltration and membrane
filtration. Through the purification method disclosed by the invention, the
recovery rate of the capsular
polysaccharide is high, the contents of
protein and
nucleic acid are low, the step of utilizing toxic organic reagents in the traditional purification method is omitted, the purification steps are simplified, and the time and cost are saved.
