Claim Text:
1. A method of collecting an elution from a column, said method comprising the steps of: a) applying a sample comprising a Factor VIII protein to a cation exchange chromatography column, wherein said Factor VIII protein is retained by said cation exchange chromatography column; b) applying a mobile phase to said cation exchange chromatography column, said mobile phase comprising a buffered solution, wherein said mobile phase establishes a conductivity gradient of from about 4 mS/cm to about 90 mS/cm in said cation exchange chromatography column; c) starting a single fraction eluate collection, wherein said single fraction eluate collection includes a single start conductivity value and a single stop conductivity value, wherein said single start conductivity value starts when an inlet conductivity value measured for said mobile phase of step b) enters said cation exchange chromatography column at about 25.0 mS/cm to about 27.0 mS/cm and when an outlet conductivity value measured for said mobile phase of step b) enters said cation exchange chromatography column at about 19.0 mS/cm to about 21.0 mS/cm; and d) stopping said single faction eluate collection when said single stop conductivity value measured for said mobile phase of step b) at the inlet is from about 41.0 mS/cm to about 43.0 mS/cm and said single stop conductivity value measured for said mobile phase of step b) at the outlet is from about 34.5 mS/cm to about 36.5 mS/cm; and wherein said single fraction eluate collection comprises 83% Factor VIII protein activity retained by said cation exchange chromatography column in step a).
