Abstract Peptides have gained increased interest over the past several decades because of their therapeutics. In this research, a strategy combining MCI gel column chromatography and high‐speed countercurrent chromatography was developed for the separation of high‐purity peptide Val‐Val‐Tyr‐Pro from Globin Peptide. First, the fraction of Val‐Val‐Tyr‐Pro mixtures with a purity of 15.8% was obtained by using MCI gel column with a mixture of ethanol/water (20:80, v/v/v). Then, the high‐purity Val‐Val‐Tyr‐Pro was separated by high‐speed countercurrent chromatography with a aqueous two phase systems of ethanol/acetonitrile/iso‐propyl alcohol/(NH 4 ) 2 SO 4 Saturated solution /H 2 O (0.5:0.5:0.25:1.5:0.7,v/v). The ammonium sulfate from high‐speed countercurrent chromatography fractions was removed from target compound by MCI gel column chromatography using ethanol/water in stepwise elution mode. A 78 mg of Val‐Val‐Tyr‐Pro was successfully purified with the purities of 98.80% from 30 g crude Globin Peptide. The amino acid sequence of the Val‐Val‐Tyr‐Pro was determined by electrospray ionization high resolution tandem mass spectrometry. The method presents a practical strategy for the large‐scale separation of pure peptide Val‐Val‐Tyr‐Pro from Globin Peptide, and provides a reference method for obtaining high‐purity peptide from other polypeptide mixtures.
