Towards protein crystallization as a process step in downstream processing of therapeutic antibodies: screening and optimization at microbatch scale.

Crystallization conditions of an intact monoclonal IgG4 (immunoglobulin G, subclass 4) antibody were established in vapor diffusion mode by sparse matrix screening and subsequent optimization. The procedure was transferred to microbatch conditions and a phase diagram was built showing surprisingly l...
