Problems solved by technology

However, to the best of the inventors' knowledge, no successful and reproducible selective removal process using this technique has been disclosed in the art, not least because of the lack of the same conditions that must be provided in the separation chamber of an FFE device. Information about, and difficulty in maintaining sufficiently stable conditions during electrophoretic separation / removal of analytes from samples
[0025] In this context, it should be noted that although US applications US 2004 / 050697 and US 2004 / 050698 to Eckerskorn et al. Achieving successful and reproducible removal of a given high-abundance protein (e.g., albumin) also does not give information on the selection of an appropriate separation buffer system, the pH conditions or profiles employed, or the maintenance of stable conditions in FFE equipment.

[0293]This example illustrates the simultaneous separation of high-abundance proteins (human serum albumin, HSA, and ). The scheme adopted in this embodiment, starting from the anode to the cathode, employs the following media: anode stabilization media, a first separation zone containing a first pH function and a first pH separation plateau, an interelectrode stabilization media (which also acts as an adjacent separation zone 1 The focusing medium of the pH separation plateau of and 2), the second separation zone containing the pH separation plateau and the second pH function, and the cathode stabilization medium.

Abstract

The present invention provides a novel and advantageous method for separating analytes by free flow electrophoresis. The methods are particularly suitable for depleting major constituents such as albumin from samples of biological origin, optionally combined with a further separation of the remaining portion of the sample. The sample portions recovered from the method can be used advantageously in downstream applications such as 1D or 2D-PAGE, HPLC or mass spectrometric analysis. Also provided are buffer systems, kits comprising such buffer systems, and devices for carrying out the free flow electrophoretic separation methods of the present invention.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to methods and devices for continuous, support-free offset electrophoresis involving separation conditions and media that enable the separation and possible removal of certain analytes with different pIs. Background technique [0002] Electrophoresis is a well-established technique for separating particles based on the migration of charged particles under the action of a direct current. As variations on the above principles, several different modes of operation have been developed, such as isoelectric focusing (IEF), zone electrophoresis (ZE) and isotachophoresis (ITP), which are well known to those skilled in the art of. [0003] Among electrophoretic techniques, free-flow electrophoresis (FFE) is one of the most promising techniques [Krivanova L. & Bocek P. (1998), "Continuous free-flow electrophoresis", Electrophoresis 19: 1064-1074]. FFE is a technique in which the separation of analytes occurs in a carrier-free medi...
