Fast Protein Liquid Chromatography Solutions for Antibodies and Recombinant Proteins
FPLC Purification
emp BIOTECH’s FPLC-ready ZetaSep columns and SMIRF™ screening kits support high-yield purification of proteins, antibodies, and tagged biomolecules. Designed with cross-linked agarose resins and optimized for ion exchange, affinity, and hydrophobic interaction chromatography, these columns deliver excellent resolution, pressure stability, and reproducible scale-up from 1 mL to preparative workflows.
The SMIRF™ (Small-Scale Integrated Rapid FPLC) kits provide pre-configured column sets for fast method development and ligand screening across IMAC, IEX, and antibody purification formats.
The following formats are available for FPLC purification:
Ion Exchange – A widely used method based on surface charge
Affinity – For selective binding of antibodies and tagged proteins
Hydrophobic Interaction – Enables gentle purification under high-salt conditions
SMIRF™ – FPLC Screening Kit – For rapid evaluation of ligands and conditions
