Cohn extraction

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Cohn extraction , synonymous with Cohn fractionation , is an extraction of albumins from blood plasma that was developed by the American biochemist Edwin J. Cohn (1892-1953).

properties

The Cohn extraction is a form of plasma fractionation and consists of serial precipitations with increasing ethanol concentrations and decreasing pH values and decreasing temperatures. The precipitations correspond to the Cohn factions. The albumins purified in the process retain their biological activity . The albumins purified by Cohn extraction were used to replace blood plasma after the Second World War . Bovine serum albumin is also purified by the Cohn extraction from bovine blood .

history

The Cohn extraction was published in 1946 by Edwin J. Cohn and LE Strong. In 2016, a continuous process was developed from the batch process (synonymous batch process) .
