Hydrophobic Interaction Chromatography for Robust Protein Separation

Hydrophobic Interaction

emp BIOTECH’s ZetaSep FPLC columns for hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) offer high-performance purification based on the selective binding of proteins to hydrophobic ligands under high-salt conditions. Featuring phenyl and butyl ligands immobilized on highly cross-linked 6% agarose resins, these columns are optimized for reproducible separation and gentle elution conditions. Whether you require enhanced binding capacity with smaller particle size or a broader interaction range for scalable HIC workflows, ZetaSep columns provide flexibility and robust performance for clarified feed streams.

The following formats are available for FPLC purification:

Ion Exchange – A widely used method based on surface charge
Hydrophobic Interaction – Enables gentle purification under high-salt conditions
SMIRF™ – FPLC Screening Kit – For rapid evaluation of ligands and conditions
