Purification examples<br />

Figures 25 and 26 show the purification of recombinant proteins expressed in soluble form or<br />

as inclusion bodies and Figure 27 gives an example of simultaneous on-column purification<br />

and refolding of a recombinant protein expressed as an inclusion body.<br />
