Selecting The Optimal Resins For Mammalian Virus Process Purification And Clearance

By Payal Khandelwal, PhD

The success of biologics for use in humans depends on the ability to effectively remove any viral contaminants. Viral Clearance from biologics is critical to their performance since they can directly infect mammalian cells and cause diseases such as AIDS, mumps, measles, herpes, hepatitis, meningitis, and shingles. And, conversely, studying these disease causing viruses can aid in the development of preventive and curative therapeutics. In this article, Bio-Rad provides snapshots of the different apatite-based media that can be effectively utilized for the process-scale purification of small to mid-sized viruses.
