Cleans the column after purification runs by rinsing the column
with a cleaning solution to remove non-specifically bound proteins.
By adding steps, several cleaning solutions can be used sequen-
tially. Column CIP
Tests the efficiency of a packed column in terms of height equiva-
lent to a theoretical plate (HETP), and the peak asymmetry factor
(A
s
).
Column Perfor-
mance Test
Prepares the column before use by removing the storage solution
and equilibrating the column. By adding steps, several preparation
solutions can be used sequentially. Column Prepa-
ration
Washes out unbound sample after sample application or removes
strongly bound proteins after elution. Column Wash
Elutes the sample from the column. Defines parameters for the
elution and fractionation settings. Elution
