“…However, it suffers from problems, such as ligand instability, leaching and high cost because Protein A and Protein G resins are very expensive and readily amenable to chemical and biological degradation (Jiang et al ., ; Ren et al ., ). On the other hand, alternative conventional chromatographic methods, such as ion exchange and biomimetic‐ligand affinity chromatography (Li et al ., ; Branco et al ., ) are suitable for large‐scale chromatography, because they are inexpensive, resistant to chemical or biological degradation, and display high protein‐binding capacity (Platis et al ., ; Platis and Labrou, ; Platis et al ., ; Liu et al ., ; Menegatti et al ., ).…”
