Salt-responsive cation exchange membrane for protein adsorption

doi:10.16085/j.issn.1000-6613.2020-1022

Abstract

Abstract:

A salt-responsive cation exchange membrane (PTA-GS) was developed by grafting poly(3-sulfopropyl methacrylate potassium salt) (PSPM) onto the surface of polyethersulfone ketone membrane containing abundant tertiary amines (PTA) with excellent chemical stability via a simple and controllable “one-pot” method. The positive-charged lysozyme (Lys) and negative bovine serum albumin (BSA) in neutral environment were used as model proteins, and the static adsorption, adsorption kinetics and the salt-responsive adsorption performance of the PTA-GS membrane toward protein were studied systematically. Moreover, the experimental results were fitted by isothermal adsorption model and adsorption kinetics model. The results showed that the Lys adsorption on PTA-GS membrane was in line with Redlich-Peterson and Langmuir isothermal adsorption models, and pseudo-second-order kinetic equation. The results discovered that the equilibrium adsorption capacity of Lys and BSA on PTA-GS membrane was much different in neutral buffer solution at 25℃, and their saturated adsorption capacity were (174.2±22.8)mg/g and (8.1±2.5)mg/g, respectively. The adsorption capacity of PTA-GS membrane toward Lys declined with the increase of salt concentration, and the desorption ratio of protein reached 79.3% after regeneration in buffer solution with 1mol/L sodium chloride. The results provided a new strategy for the simple preparation of salt-responsive cation exchange membrane with excellent adsorption performance and guidance for the protein adsorption behavior on the cation exchange membrane.

摘要：

通过简单可控的“一锅法”将聚甲基丙烯酸-3-磺酸丙酯钾盐（PSPM）接枝到化学稳定性良好的富含叔胺基的聚醚砜酮（PTA）膜表面，制备得到盐响应型阳离子交换膜（PTA-GS）。以中性时带正电的溶菌酶（Lys）和带负电的牛血清白蛋白（BSA）作为模型蛋白质，系统研究了PTA-GS膜对蛋白质的静态吸附性能、吸附动力学以及盐响应的吸附性能，并采用等温吸附模型、吸附动力学模型对实验结果进行拟合。结果表明，PTA-GS膜对Lys的吸附更符合Redlich-Peterson、Langmuir等温吸附模型和拟二级动力学方程。在25℃，中性缓冲溶液中PTA-GS膜对Lys和BSA的平衡吸附量具有显著差异，它们的饱和吸附量分别为(174.2±22.8)mg/g和(8.1±2.5)mg/g。PTA-GS膜对Lys的吸附量随盐浓度的升高而降低，其在含1mol/L氯化钠的缓冲溶液中再生后蛋白质脱附率可达79.3%。研究结果可为简单制备吸附性能优异的盐响应型离子交换膜提供新思路，并为阳离子交换膜上蛋白质的吸附行为研究提供指导。
