The present application belongs to the technical field of biological
medicine separation and purification, and particularly relates to a leech-derived
hirudin separation and purification method based on
thrombin affinity magnetic microspheres and application thereof. The present application uses self-prepared leaching liquor to coarsely extract
hirudin from leech
powder, then selects carboxyl magnetic microspheres to prepare
thrombin affinity magnetic microspheres, and further separates and purifies by using the
thrombin affinity magnetic microspheres, so as to finally obtain natural
hirudin with an activity of 17000 ATU / g or more. The self-prepared leaching liquor can destroy the
cell wall of leech, so that the hirudin in the leech is fully dissolved, thereby providing higher efficiency for the coarse extraction of hirudin in leech
powder. The prepared thrombin affinity magnetic microspheres can fully utilize the sample enrichment effect thereof, and compared with
agarose microspheres and
polymer microspheres, can separate and purify hirudin with higher activity and purity, has a long storage period and stable quality, can provide safe and high-quality raw materials for
health food,
medicine or
cosmetics, and is beneficial to industrialized production and application.
