Novel aqueous two-phase micellar systems (ATPMS) composed of Pluronic F68, a triblock amphiphilic copolymer, and cholinium-based ionic liquids (ILs) were formulated and applied for separation/purification of curcumin (CCM). ...

Lipopolysaccharide endotoxins (LPS) are the most common contaminant pyrogenic compounds found in intracellular recombinant biomolecules purified from Gram-negative bacteria, such as Escherichia coli. Thus, the purification ...

Aqueous two-phase micellar systems (ATPMS) are more than simple amphiphilic copolymer or surfactant aqueous solutions since due to the formation of biphasic regimes, at certain temperatures, these can be successfully used ...

BACKGROUND: Aqueous two-phase micellar systems (ATPMS) are micellar surfactant solutions with physical properties that make them very efficient for the extraction/concentration of biological products. In this work the main ...

Aqueous two-phase micellar systems (ATPMS) can be exploited in separation science for the extraction/purification of desired biomolecules. Prior to phase separation the surfactant solution reaches a cloud point temperature, ...

The development of efficient and cost-effective downstream processes is essential for any pharmaceutical products. Clavulanic acid (CA) is a ß-lactamic drug used combined with antibiotics to inhibit bacterial resistance ...

Viral vectors are important in medical approaches, such as disease prevention and gene therapy, and their production depends on efficient prepurification steps. In the present study, an aqueous two-phase micellar system ...

This work is the first attempt to apply aqueous two-phase mixed micellar systems (ATPMS) of the nonionic surfactant Triton X-114 and the anionic one AOT to extract clavulanic acid (CA) from broth fermented by Streptomyces ...
