Description

Technical Field

[0002] The chromatography columns used in the chromatographic system of the downstream of biomedicine are structurally that the sample to be processed enters from one end of the chromatography column and flows out from the other end for collection. Therefore, it is impossible to process particle sediments and cannot backwash the distribution screen plate, and it is impossible to achieve the ability of high-efficiency chromatography and particle processing at the same time. In the prior art, for example, the patent number is: 202120067489.X, and the utility model name is a hydraulically driven dynamic chromatography device. When the separation liquid needs to be added, the liquid is injected from the liquid inlet and flows out from the liquid outlet for collection; or for example, the patent number is: 201820028656.8, and the utility model name is a moving beam type fully automatic chromatography column, the structure of which is a sieve plate, a diverter plate and a base at the bottom, and a lower nozzle is arranged at the center of the sieve plate. When the separation liquid needs to be added, the liquid enters from the chromatography port of the upper nozzle and flows out from the chromatography port of the lower nozzle for collection, or enters from the chromatography port of the lower nozzle and flows out from the chromatography port of the upper nozzle for collection. Its disadvantages are: 1. It cannot achieve flushing or elution on the upper part of the column head; 2. It does not support back flushing of the filter plate (sieve plate), which can easily lead to blockage; 3. It cannot achieve high linear flow rate and overload loading at the same time, and the dynamic loading capacity is low.

The tangential flow structure is adopted to realize tangential flow filtration and chromatographic loading at the same time, thereby achieving high linear flow rate and overload loading, and achieving extremely high dynamic loading capacity. Therefore, in order to meet production needs, a continuous flow chromatography system that can utilize tangential flow chromatography columns is required. Summary of the invention

A method for using a continuous chromatography system based on a tangential flow chromatography column according to claim 13, wherein the method for using the continuous chromatography system based on a tangential flow chromatography column further comprises flushing after sample loading: the buffer solution enters the top inlet and outlet ends of the tangential flow chromatography column where sample loading is completed through an elution pipeline, passes through the chromatography column, flows out from the reflux port end of the tangential flow chromatography column, and is collected using a collection pipeline connected to the reflux port end pipeline.

15. A method for using a continuous chromatography system based on a tangential flow chromatography column according to claim 13, wherein the method for using the continuous chromatography system of the tangential flow chromatography column further comprises the step of regeneration after elution: the cleaning agent enters the top inlet and outlet ends of the tangential flow chromatography column where the elution is completed through the elution pipeline, passes through the chromatography column, and then flows out from the reflux port end of the tangential flow chromatography column, and is collected using a collection pipeline connected to the reflux port end pipeline.
