Abstract
A batch system apparatus for collecting lysozyme from egg white by adsorption on an ion-exchange resin, which includes a lysozyme adsorption tank, equipped therein with a stirring mechanism for stirring an egg white solution and an ion-exchange resin, having a strainer provided in a lower portion thereof, having liquid discharge pipes connected thereto at a position below the strainer, preferably at the bottom of the tank, and at the side wall above the strainer at a height such that the resin when left at rest will not overflow, respectively, and further having a resin discharge pipe connected thereto at the lower portion of the side wall, above and in the vicinity of the strainer; a positive displacement pump connected to the liquid discharge pipes for transferring the egg white solution after removal of lysozyme to a reservoir tank; and a centrifugal pump connected to the resin discharge pipe for transferring the mixture of the resin and water to a separate tank, whereby collection by adsorption can be made simple, convenient for use and also suitable for a small-quantity treatment.
