Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is widely found in fruits and vegetables and in human breast milk; it is considered a 'longevity vitamin' and is used as a functional food. In this study, a two-step process for the large-scale separation and purification of PQQ from the crude fermentation broth of a methylotrophic bacterium was developed. Pretreatment was accomplished by centrifugation and filtration (Process I), and then macroporous resins were applied for further purification (Process II). On the basis of static adsorption/desorption tests and the well-described pseudo-first order kinetic model, XAD-1600 was chosen as the most suitable resin for PQQ separation. The equilibrium adsorption data were well fitted to both the Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms, and dynamic adsorption/desorption tests were performed to standardize the operational parameters for a scaled-up PQQ purification procedure. Finally, the recovery yield of PQQ with 96.23% purity after pretreatment and macroporous resin treatment reached 82.57%, and 93.62 g PQQ crystals with over 99% purity were obtained from 70 L of crude fermentation broth (1.674 g/L PQQ). Thus, our strategy for the large-scale separation and purification of PQQ from fermentation broth might be beneficial for meeting the increasing demand for PQQ in the food and pharmaceutical industries.
