The separation of bio- macromolecule in aqueous two-phase systems ( ATPs) with HSCCC is still under research, and the establishment of high- speed counter- current aqueous two-phase chromatography ( HSCCC-ATP) relies on the improvement of equipment structure and optimization of operation parameters. By using a multi- column high- speed counter- current chromatograph, the separation of protein mixture and the purifi2 cation of ovalbumin from hen egg white were studied. The effects of ph and PEG concentration on the partition coefficients of proteins were tested in PEG1000-phosphate ATPs, and distinct differences among partition coefficients of proteins were found at ph 912 and 1510 % ( WΠW) PEG concentration in said system. The separation of protein mixture, consisting of cytochrome C, lysozyme and myoglobin was successfully performed in 1510 % ( WΠW) PEG100021710 % ( WΠW) potassium phosphate ATPs at ph 912 with high- speed counter- current chromatograph at rotation speed of 850rΠmin and flow rate of 018mLΠmin, using upper Received : August 9, 2004 ; Accepted : October 12, 2004 3 Corresponding author.

The optimal ph value and PEG concentration for the purification of ovalbumin by HSCCC-ATP were found to be 912 and 1610 % ( WΠW) respectively. Ovalbumin was suc2 cessfully purified to homogeneity from the hen egg white sample in 1610 % ( WΠW) PEG100021710 % ( WΠW) potassium phos2 phate ATPs at ph 912 with high- speed counter- current chromatograph at rotation speed of 850rΠmin and flow rate of 118mLΠmin, using upper phase as stationary phase. The purification recovery of ovalbumin was around 95 %.
