Section 1
Introduction
Bio-Scale Mini cartridges are convenient, disposable,
prepacked chromatography cartridges. Patented*
column design assures leak-free operation with any
low pressure chromatography system. Bio-Scale
Mini cartridges are available for a variety of
chromatographic techniques such as desalting, ion
exchange, hydrophobic interaction, and affinity
chromatography.
Bio-Scale Mini Profinity eXact cartridges are packed
with Profinity eXact (EXact Affinity Cleavage Technology)
purification resin. This agarose-based affinity
chromatography resin utilizes an immobilized, modified
protease that selectively binds the fusion protein
and cleaves the affinity tag on-column under
controlled conditions, releasing the purified target
protein which contains only its native amino acid
sequence. This innovative resin technology improves
the efficiency of recombinant protein purification, and
is the only affinity chromatography platform that
completes the purification and tag removal process in
a single step.

Product Information
Bio-Scale Mini cartridges are prepacked
chromatography cartridges supplied ready for use in
1 ml and 5 ml sizes. Bio-Scale Mini cartridges can
be used with any liquid chromatography system
capable of setting a high pressure limit of 45 psi
(equivalent to 3 bar or 300 kPa). Alternatively, luer
fittings offer convenient connection directly to a
Luer-Lok syringe for quick, one-step purification.
See Ordering Information, Section 12, for a listing of
the complete Bio-Scale Mini cartridge product line.

Connection to
Low-Pressure
Chromatography Systems
Bio-Scale Mini cartridges are ideal for use with
Bio-Rad's BioLogic™ LP chromatography system,
Econo™ gradient pump, the patented* Model
EP-1 Econo pump, and all low-pressure
chromatography instruments. Bio-Scale Mini cartridges
can be conveniently connected directly to the system
using the luer fittings on the cartridge.
1. Install 1.6 mm inner diameter (ID) tubing in the
pumphead. Adjust the platen pressure screw
(on pumphead) using a screwdriver or coin.
Turn the screw counterclockwise as far as it will
go, then turn clockwise three full turns.
Assemble with fittings and lock rings as shown
in Figure 1.

Fig. 2. Connecting to an MV-6 valve.
3. Connect the inlet of the cartridge to the male
luer fitting on the MV-6 sample inject valve (see
Figure 2). If not using the MV-6 sample inject
valve, connect a barb to male luer fitting on the
1.6 mm ID tubing, then connect to the top of
the female luer on the Bio-Scale Mini cartridge.
For optimum performance, a cartridge should
be mounted vertically with the arrow on the
cartridge pointing downward (see Figure 3).

2. To maximize gradient accuracy and to apply
samples efficiently, install 1.6 mm ID tubing
from the pump to the MV-6 sample inject valve
(if available). If using the MV-6 sample inject
valve, turn the knob counterclockwise as far as
it will go so it corresponds to the printed diagram
on the valve (see Figure 2).

Section 4
Connection to Medium
and High-Pressure
Chromatography Systems
Bio-Scale Mini cartridges can be connected to any
liquid chromatography system, provided that the
system does not exceed the maximum pressure
limit of the cartridges (3 bar, 45 psi or 300 kPa). It is
recommended that the system pressure limit be set
according to the cartridge pressure limit. Pressures
in excess of 3 bar are usually caused by restrictions
in tubing or detector cells downstream from the
cartridge. Bio-Rad offers two fitting kits for easy
connection of a Bio-Scale Mini cartridge to a
BioLogic DuoFlow™, HPLC-, or FPLC-type system.
4.1 BioLogic DuoFlow Systems
The luer to BioLogic system fittings kit (catalog
#732-0113) includes 1/4-28 female to male luer
and 1/4-28 female to female luer to connect one
Bio-Scale Mini cartridge to the BioLogic DuoFlow
system. (see Figure 4)
11
4. Connect the cartridge outlet to the 1.6 mm ID
tubing leading to the BioLogic LP system
optics module or to the Model EM-1 Econo UV
monitor. It is recommended to use the shortest
length (approximately 10 cm) of 1.6 mm ID
tubing. Connect a barb to female luer to the
1.6 mm ID tubing, then connect to the bottom
of the male luer on the Bio-Scale Mini cartridge.

cartridge should be mounted vertically with the arrow on the
cartridge pointing downward.

4.3 FPLC Systems
The luer to M6 adaptor fittings kit (catalog #732-0111)
provides fittings necessary to connect the Bio-Scale
Mini cartridge to the M6 fittings found on FPLC or
related systems. Alternatively, connection can be
made by using one GE Healthcare Union luerlock
female to M6 female fitting (GE 18-1027-12) and
one Upchurch P-686, female slip luer to male M6
fitting or GE 18-1027-62, Union luerlock female to
M6 male fitting. To prevent tubing or cartridge failure,
do not exceed the maximum recommended flow
rate of the cartridge.
* Fittings kit ordering information can be found within
the Ordering Information section of this manual.

4.2 HPLC Systems
The luer to 10-32 adaptor fittings kit (catalog
#732-0112) provides fittings necessary to connect
the Bio-Scale Mini cartridge to nut and ferrule type
fittings found on most HPLC systems. Alternatively,
the cartridge can be connected to HPLC systems
via a low dead-volume 1/16 inch union with a new
piece of stainless-steel tubing attached to the
union. Simply slip a short length of the 0.8 mm ID
tubing over the 1/16 inch OD stainless-steel tubing
to a distance of 1 cm.

Section 5
Buffers and Methods
Bio-Scale Mini Profinity eXact cartridges can be run
using either native or denaturing purification protocols.
Under native conditions, proteins are purified using
buffers that help retain the natural folded structure
of the target protein. Under denaturing conditions, a
strong chaotrope (e.g. urea) is included in the
bind/wash buffer and elution buffer, allowing target
proteins to be purified in an unfolded or partially
folded state. The recommended buffer compositions
and triggering anions are provided in the following
tables. Note that some loss in binding capacity may
be observed when buffers used contain greater
than 2 M urea. Additionally, urea concentrations
greater than 4 M may result in decreased target
protein purity.
