A high degree of purity is a prerequisite for an allergen preparation to be suitable for clinical diagnosis and therapy. A pure allergen can easily be obtained from a crude mite culture extract by using an immunosorbent prepared with highly specific monoclonal antibodies or from a cDNA-coded material. However, up to now none of these methods has been performed on a process scale. Here large-scale purification is defined as a process in which a crude Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus mite culture extract is essentially fractionated by acetone and ammonium sulphate precipitations followed by anion-exchange high-performance liquid chromatography. A high yield of a very pure Der pI allergen is obtained during the first isocratic run, as shown by sodium dodecylsulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, capillary electrophoresis, chromatofocusing and a two site monoclonal antibody enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Microsequencing revealed that the 25-residue sequence obtained is entirely in agreement with the sequence derived from the cDNA of Der pI.
