• Human influenza virus was purified using continuous simulated bed chromatography.
• Purification performance of a wide range of operation conditions was investigated.
• Productivity could be increased compared to conventional batch chromatography.
• Residual amount of total proteins met the level required for human vaccines.
Continuous size exclusion chromatography for the separation of cell culture-derived influenza virus from contaminating proteins was established successfully. Therefore, an open loop simulated moving bed (SMB) setup with one column per zone was applied. Several operating conditions were tested and overall trends were found to be in agreement with expectations derived from theory. Furthermore, the separation performance was compared to an optimized conventional batch chromatography. The yield of influenza virus in the product fraction, based on a hemagglutination assay, was 70% (SMB) and 80% (batch), respectively. The amount of contaminating protein per product was 0.61 μg kHAU−1 (SMB) compared to 0.29 μg kHAU−1 (batch). This corresponds to a reduction of the respective amount in the feed solution by 60% and 80%, respectively. For both processes, the estimated amount of total protein per vaccine dose would meet the level required for manufacturing of human influenza vaccines prepared in cell cultures. Depending on the strategy chosen for sanitization and equilibration of columns the calculated overall productivity for the SMB process was up to 3.8 times higher compared to the batch mode. SMB, therefore, has the potential to replace single column discontinuous chromatography in order to design more efficient purification trains for production of cell culture-derived influenza vaccines.
