About

Sunil Chhatre is a biochemical engineer whose research focuses on the development of microscale and high-throughput methods for the purification and quantification of therapeutic antibodies. His work addresses critical bottlenecks in bioprocess development, particularly for the recovery of polyclonal antibodies from complex feedstocks like ovine serum. Chhatre’s major contributions include pioneering a microscale chromatography approach that enables the rapid prediction of column performance for polyclonal antibody purification, a method that has garnered over 30 citations. He further advanced the field by designing an automated, packed Protein G micro-pipette tip assay, which allows for the swift and accurate quantification of antibodies in serum, significantly reducing the time and material required for analysis. This innovation has been cited more than 20 times, underscoring its utility in both academic and industrial settings. Chhatre’s work is notable for bridging the gap between laboratory-scale research and industrial-scale manufacturing, providing tools that accelerate the development of life-saving biologics. His contributions are particularly relevant to students and researchers in bioprocess engineering and downstream processing.
