Virus Filtration Technologies - An Overview
The commercial manufacturing of therapeutic antibodies or recombinant proteins requires robust and reliable processes that are economical and deliver high yields, while generating a product that is effective and safe for human use. One factor posing a threat to patient safety is the presence of viruses in the final product. Virus filtration is a widely used method for the removal of enveloped and non-enveloped viruses in the biopharmaceutical manufacturing process. It has been traditionally accepted as a robust method for virus clearance.
Sartorius will review the principles of virus technology and factors affecting virus safety. We will take a look at the Sartorius virus filters portfolio and consider the requirements to ensure the most reliable virus retention to meet stringent process conditions.
