This work demonstrates that cyclohexanedimethanol is an effective nonflammable organic solvent for the pilot scale reversed phase chromatography of recombinant apolipoprotein A-I Milano. Cyclohexanedimethanol has low viscosity in water, enabling the use of conventional low pressure process scale chromatography columns and hardware. Results from pilot scale manufacturing using a 30 cm diameter CG71M packed column indicate that a 5.7 log reduction in E. coli host cell protein with >80% yield can be obtained for the purification of apolipoprotein A-I Milano.
