Introduction

Bradykinin, a 9 amino acid peptide, is a physiologically and pharmacologically active peptide of the kinin group of proteins, which is used in the development of antagonists and therapies for hereditary angioedema. In this application, 50 mg of crude bradykinin, synthesised on a StratoSpheresâ„¢ PL-Rink resin, is purified using an HPLC method that can be scaled from the laboratory through to full production.
