A novel method for removing polyethyleneimine from biopharmaceutical samples : improving assay sensitivity of residual DNA qPCR

Polyethyleneimine (PEI) is a flocculent that is widely used in the downstream purification of monoclonal antibodies. It is an in-process residual that is carried through the drug purification process and strongly inhibits residual DNA quantitation by real-time quantitative PCR assay. Very high sampl...

Description
Résumé:Polyethyleneimine (PEI) is a flocculent that is widely used in the downstream purification of monoclonal antibodies. It is an in-process residual that is carried through the drug purification process and strongly inhibits residual DNA quantitation by real-time quantitative PCR assay. Very high sample dilutions (e.g., 1:10,000) can overcome the interference of PEI, but at the cost of DNA assay sensitivity. Diluting samples poses a significant risk to the assay sensitivity needed to satisfy regulatory requirements on the quantitation of residual genomic DNA present per dose (i.e., 10 ng/dose). Removing PEI while retaining DNA, by the use of sodium dodecyl sulfate, heparin and/or sarkosyl can overcome the interference of PEI and allow a more accurate quantitation of residual DNA
