Recommendations for establishment of reference standards for recombinant-DNA-derived proteins and polypeptides.
An integrated approach is presented for the establishment of purified protein and peptide reference standard materials suitable for both biological and chemical assays. Preliminary considerations, handling and storage conditions, and a variety of chemical methods for defining the reference standards are examined in detail. Of the chemical methods, liquid chromatography (LC), amino acid analysis, Kjeldahl protein assay, electrophoresis, and ion chromatography are key assays in determining the potency, purity, and identity of the reference standard preparation. Finally, the role of liquid chromatography in assessing reference standards for identity and chemical purity is examined and correlated with other methods.
