Frequently Asked Questions and Solutions
Issue | Possible Causes | Solutions |
Resolution difference between target peak and impurity peak | 1. Overloading of sample | Reduce the sample volume to 0.5% of the column volume (CV) |
2. Sample too viscous | Dilute the sample appropriately | |
3. Excessive flow rate
| Reduce the flow rate | |
4. Short column length | Choose a longer or narrower column | |
5. Excessive dead volume | Minimize dead volume in tubing and connectors | |
6. Poor column packing | Repack the column or use prepacked columns | |
7. Unfiltered sample | Filter the sample using a 0.22 µm or 0.45 µm filter | |
8. Contaminated resin | Clean the column and re-equilibrate | |
9. Improper column installation
| Reinstall the column vertically | |
10. Non-uniform temperature usage | Maintain a constant temperature throughout the process | |
Unexpected elution peak | 1. Inconsistent sample volume | Maintain the same sample volume throughout |
2. Ionic interaction between protein and resin | Maintain the ionic strength of the buffer in the range of 0.05-0.15 NaCl | |
3. Ionic interaction between protein and resin | Reducing the ionic strength can minimize hydrophobic interactions. Additionally, hydrophobic interactions can be reduced by increasing the pH, adding surfactants, or incorporating organic reagents | |
4. Changes in the sample during storage | Prepare fresh samples | |
5. Precipitation of proteins and lipids in the chromatography column | Clean the column or replace it with a new one | |
6. Microbial growth in the resin | The column does not support microbial growth during usage, but it should be stored in 20% ethanol | |
Washing peak elution occurs earlier | 1. Gaps in the packed column | Repack the column |
2. Formation of protein dimers or oligomers | Ensure the stability of the sample under experimental conditions | |
Delayed elution of the washing peak | 1. Ionic or hydrophobic interactions between proteins and the resin | Maintain an ionic strength of 0.05-0.15M NaCl in the buffer |
2. Dirt on the resin, filter membrane, or top of the column bed | Clean the column and re-equilibrate | |
3. Microbial growth in the resin | The column does not support microbial growth during usage, but it should be stored in 20% ethanol | |
Rapid increase in chromatographic peak | Overly tight packing of the resin | Repack the column |
Slow or tailing chromatographic peak | Loose packing of the resin | Repack the column |
Cracks or dryness in the column bed | Leakage or introduction of large air bubbles | Check for leaks or bubbles in the tubing and repack the column if necessary |
Slow liquid flow | 1. Aggregation of proteins or lipids | Clean the resin or membrane promptly |
2. Protein precipitation in the resin | Adjust the composition of the equilibration and elution buffers to maintain the stability of the target substance and the binding efficiency of the resin | |
3. Microbial growth in the separation column | All reagents used must be filtered and degassed. The sample must be centrifuged or filtered before applying it to the column | |
4. Compression of the column bed | Repack the column | |
Column bed contains bubbles | Repack the column due to temperature differences during use or residue in the tubing | Repack the column |
Increased pressure | 1. Sample turbidity | Prepare a fresh sample |
2. Clogging in the tubing or frit | Clean the tubing, frit, and resin; repack the column |
