PROCESS FOR THE PURIFICATION OF STREPTOKINASE

摘要

B2619/Abs A process for the separation of streptokinase from contaminating proteins in a streptokinase-containing mixture, which comprises treating the mixture with a reducing agent to reduce disulphide bridges in the contaminating proteins to free thiol groups, contacting the mixture with a reagent R-X wherein R is a group capable of reacting with a free thiol group and X is a group R1 capable of reacting with a free thiol group or is a thiol-containing matrix, and thereafter separating the resulting chemically modified contaminating proteins from the mixture to provide streptokinase in a form substantially free of contaminating proteins.
