The present invention discloses methods of neutralizing apatite surfaces, for example after a flow-through collection of a target and prior to cleaning the chromatography solid support. In some embodiments, the method comprises, (a) contacting a sample comprising the target molecule to an apatite solid surface thereby flowing the target molecule past the apatite solid surface; (b) neutralizing the apatite solid surface by contacting the apatite solid surface with a sufficient concentration and volume of an alkaline hydroxide; and (c) cleaning the apatite solid surface. |
