Large scale processes for producing high purity samples of biologically active molecules of interest from bacterial cells are disclosed. The methods comprise the steps of producing a lysate solution by contacting a cell suspension of said plurality of cells with lysis solution; neutralizing said lysate solution with a neutralizing solution to produce a dispersion that comprises neutralized lysate solution and debris; filtering the dispersion through at least one filter; performing ion exchange separation on said neutralized lysate solution to produce an ion exchange eluate; and performing hydrophobic interaction separation on said ion exchange eluate to produce a hydrophobic interaction solution. Further, provided are compositions comprising large scale amounts of plasmid DNA produced by the disclosed large scale processes.
