The first peer-reviewed PC/PPQ framework for MCSGP. 95% IPC reduction, 73% PMI reduction, 96% gross-to-gross yield — validated at GMP commercial scale on Bachem Bivalirudin.
Eisenhuth, R. & Müller-Späth, T. — Processes, 2025 (Open-Access)
First peer-reviewed AIEX MCSGP for therapeutic siRNA. Yield improved from 80% to 93% on a sugar-conjugated siRNA sense strand — software-aided method development enabled fast batch-to-MCSGP transfer. Throughput increased 87%.
Weldon et al. Org. Process Res. Dev. 2025, (Open-Access)
Proof-of-concept MCSGP for AAV2 polishing. Full capsid content increased from 30% to 68% (ddPCR) after six cycles — with +20.6% yield, +23% productivity, and 27% reduced buffer consumption vs batch AEX. AutoPeak® PAT validated against cryo-TEM and ddPCR.

Automated end-to-end integrated continuous manufacturing combines perfusion bioreactor, CaptureSMB, virus inactivation, and polish chromatography.
Systematic design space analysis comparing batch and MCSGP processes for aggregate removal establishes robustness metrics for continuous polishing operations.
Model-based approaches for twin-column continuous capture process design establish systematic methodology for CaptureSMB implementation.
Systematic evaluation of MCSGP process parameters for antibody polishing identifies critical variables affecting separation performance and product quality.
Comparison of different Protein A resins in multi-column CaptureSMB configurations using mechanistic modeling provides guidance for resin selection in continuous capture.
Development and implementation of a twin-column MCSGP process for Liraglutide purification using simulation and optimization approaches.
Purification is where oligonucleotide yield is lost, and the synthesis has to be sized to cover it. Converting a reversed-phase batch method for a GalNAc-conjugated gapmer to twin-column MCSGP lifted recovery from 52.7% to 91.6% at the same purity — enough to shrink the synthesis step by 42.5% for the same daily output.
An established anion exchange batch method for a conjugated siRNA sense strand, converted to continuous twin-column MCSGP: 13 cycles, 27 product elutions, and yield up from 80% to 93% at unchanged purity — plus a software-aided route from batch chromatogram to running method.
Continuous chromatography is already in production use, but there was no published account of how to validate it for a regulatory filing. This study provides one, working through Process Characterization and Performance Qualification for MCSGP on commercial-scale Bivalirudin purification: 34 parameters assessed, four tested, one critical.
Green solvents have always cost the peptide industry recovery. This study shows the loss is a property of batch chromatography, not of the solvent: run the same green eluent counter-currently and the yield comes back.
