PURIFICATION METHOD FOR VIRUS-LIKE PARTICLES

摘要

The present invention aims at establishing a novel means for purifying norovirus VLPs. There is provided a purification method of norovirus virus-like particles, comprising: contacting solution containing norovirus virus-like particles with support for hydroxyapatite chromatography, binding the virus-like particles to the support, subsequently washing the support with buffer, and then eluting the virus-like particles from the support with buffer containing phosphate, wherein the phosphate concentration of the buffer used for elution is less than 10 mM.
