ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for the continuous separation of a target protein from a protein mixture containing two or more proteins and at a pH equal to the pI of the target protein is disclosed. The method and apparatus employ a non-ionic, non-electrically conductive porous conduit through which the protein mixture is passed. The conduit is subjected to the influence of an electrical field substantially perpendicular to the flow of fluid therethrough resulting in movement of all charged protein from the conduit lumen. The target protein, which is unaffected by the electric field since it is not charged at a pH equal to its pI, is collected from the conduit outlet in substantially purified form.
