Downstream control · purification

Recover more drug from every column.

Autonomous downstream purification that sets load, gradients, and pooling from live signals and predicts chromatography breakthrough before it happens.

The problem

Downstream quietly bleeds the margin upstream earned.

After the culture is harvested, purification decides how much of the expensive drug substance survives. Clarification, Protein A and ion-exchange chromatography, ultrafiltration and diafiltration, and viral steps have to strip everything but the target to parts-per-million purity without denaturing it, over Protein A resin that costs thousands per liter and membranes that foul.

Load, gradient, pooling, and cycle decisions are still made from fixed recipes and offline assays. A mistimed pool, an early breakthrough, or a missed viral step loses yield, wastes resin, or scraps a batch worth millions.

What Purion does

Closed-loop control across the whole downstream train.

Purion takes control of clarification, Protein A and ion-exchange chromatography, UF/DF, and viral steps. It sets load, gradients, and pooling from live in-line signals and Titeon's CQA readings, and predicts breakthrough before it happens. It optimizes resin cycles and buffer prep to squeeze yield and purity out of every run while holding the purity and viral-clearance spec. Every action is bounded and logged to a validated audit trail.

Chromatography control

Load, gradient, and pooling set live from in-line UV, conductivity, and pH.

Breakthrough prediction

Sees the breakthrough coming and adapts pooling to protect yield.

UF/DF and viral steps

Controlled with purity and clearance assurance built in.

Consumable savings

Resin-cycle and buffer-prep optimization to cut the cost per run.

Fits your stack

Connectors to ÄKTA and skids, DCS, and MES, with a Part 11 audit trail.

Learns across sites

Every run compounds into a shared purification-yield dataset.

  • Yield and breakthrough prediction from in-line UV, conductivity, and pH
  • Adaptive pooling and gradient control policies tuned per run
  • Hybrid mechanistic and ML column models
  • CQA-aware pooling grounded in Titeon's readings

Under the hood

Deciding the run, not just executing a recipe.

ÄKTA and skid controllers run fixed methods. Purion decides load, gradient, and pooling adaptively from live CQAs and learns yield across sites. It closes the loop where the incumbents only execute, and the adaptive policies sharpen as they train on partner runs.

Built on NVIDIA

GPU-essential during a running column.

  • Edge hardwareJetson Orin and Thor (IGX) run skid decisions at the edge, where pooling cannot wait for a remote call.
  • TrainingDGX and HGX train column and yield models over purification-run histories.
  • LibrariesCUDA and TensorRT accelerate in-line breakthrough and pooling inference. cuOpt sequences chromatography, resin cycles, and buffer prep under constraints. RAPIDS accelerates the run-history feature pipelines.
