Popis: | By using two model proteins, glucose oxidase and lipase, we demonstrate that dry crystalline formulations are significantly more stable than their amorphous counterparts. The results of Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy indicate that crystalline proteins better maintain their native conformation in accelerated stability studies. The lower tendency of crystalline proteins to aggregate is confirmed by size-exclusion chromatography. The data suggest that protein crystallization may significantly improve some aspects of protein handling, and change the way biopharmaceuticals are produced, formulated, and delivered. |
