“…A linear driving force approximation, which considers the mass transfer in the solid phase to be dominant, was used to describe mass transfer limitations [
42, 43]:
where
describes the effective mass transfer coefficient,
denotes the particle diameter of the resin and
denotes the hypothetical adsorbed protein concentration at equilibrium with the mobile phase. Note that
is a lumped rate parameter describing the transfer between

[
