A method to purify type A botulinum neurotoxin from a 64 l bacterial culture is reported. The procedure includes cation exchange chromatography at pH 7.0. the final product, essentially homogeneous (according to polyacrylamide gel-sodium dodecyl sulfate electrophoresis), is a mixture of 2 forms of the neurotoxin (MW 145,000); the dichain or nicked form (over 95%) and its precursor the single chain or unnicked form. Two batches of the neurotoxin purified by the method described here and 1 batch purified according to the method of Sugii and Skaguchi were similar in purity and amino acid composition. The best estimate of the number of amino acid residues per neurotoxin molecule (MW 145,000) is: Asp200Thr75Ser79Glu114Pro44Gly64Ala53Val70CyS10Met22Ile111Leu104Tyr71Phe68Lys100His14Arg43Trp17.
