Chromatin is often overlooked during viral vector downstream processing, yet it can have a significant impact on recovery, filtration performance, process robustness, and manufacturing economics. This scientific poster explores why nuclease selection plays a critical role in chromatin clearance and how it can influence overall process performance.
In this poster, you'll learn:
- Why residual host-cell DNA is primarily chromatin rather than free DNA.
- How salt conditions can limit the performance of conventional nucleases during downstream processing.
- The downstream consequences of incomplete chromatin digestion, including filter fouling, aggregation, and recovery variability.
- How salt-stable nucleases can improve chromatin clearance and process robustness.
- The potential impact of nuclease selection on recovery, processing efficiency, DNA clearance, and manufacturing costs.
