Abstract:
Among other aspects, the present invention provides methods for the manufacture of blood protein compositions from pooled plasma. In one embodiment, the invention provides an alcohol fractionation scheme that allows for significant increases in the yield of blood proteins purified from the starting plasma sample. In a specific embodiment, a method for fractionating pooled plasma is provided, the method comprising an initial low pH, high alcohol precipitation step. The present invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions of therapeutic blood proteins.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for the measurement of active alpha 1 -proteinase inhibitor (A1PI) in a sample, comprising the steps of binding elastase to a solid support, letting the A1PI contained in the sample bind to the solid phase-bound elastase, and detecting solid phase-bound A1PI with a detection reagent.
Abstract:
The present invention provides improved methods for the manufacturing of IVIG products.

In other aspects, the present invention provides aqueous and pharmaceutical compositions suitable for intravenous, subcutaneous, and/or intramuscular administration. In yet other embodiments, the present invention provides methods of treating a disease or condition comprising administration of an IgG composition provided herein.
Abstract:
[00135] The invention generally relates to methods of measuring cleaved von Willebrand factor (VWF) fragments. More specifically, the invention relates to methods of measuring the ability of a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with a thrombospondin type 1 motif, member 13 (ADAMTS13) to cleave VWF in vivo . The invention also relates to methods of using various animal models which demonstrate ADAMTS1 3 activity similar to that of a human. The invention further relates to methods of measuring the cleavage products of rVWF in mammals, particularly in humans and in human plasma.
Abstract:
The present invention relates, in general, to development of non-human transgenic animals expressing a human blood clotting factor, such as Factor VIII, Factor VII, Factor IX and von Willebrand factor. The invention further provides methods of detecting immunogenic events against human blood clotting factor using the transgenic animals described.
Abstract:
The present invention provides methods of preparing alpha- 1 -antiproteinase inhibitor and controlling the amount of des-lys alpha- 1 -antiproteinase inhibitor in the preparation, and compositions comprising the same, as well as methods of treatment using the same.
Abstract:
The invention provides a kit for measuring the thrombin generation in a sample of a patient's blood or plasma, or in a sample of clotting factors. The kit contains lyophilized tissue factor/phospholipid-complex and a lyophilized mixture containing a thrombin-substrate and CaCl 2 . The invention also provides processes for preparing the reagents for the kit. The kit can be used in a method for measuring the thrombin generation in a sample, wherein it is possible to detect changes in thrombin generation kinetics, for example after administration of inhibitor bypassing agents to a patient who has developed inhibitors to an exogenous clotting factor such as Factor VIII.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for determining an effective dose of monochromatic or polychromatic light from one or more light sources to inactivete microorganisms present in a biological fluid, preferably a non-trannsparent fluid. Moreover, there is provided a method for the inactivation of microorganism in a biological fluid in a flow-through-reactor. Moreover, the invention advantageously provides a flow-through-reactor with one or more thermostated light sources. The invention further provides a method of controlling the light sum dose of monochromatic or polychromatic light emitted from one or more light sources to effectively inactivate microorganisms present in a biological fluid in a batch reactor.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a preparation based on blood clotting factor VII with a fraction of less than 5 % of factor VIIa, which exhibits a specific activity of at least 50 E/mg and is stable in the absence of blood clotting inhibitors. The invention also relates to a method for producing such a preparation.
Abstract translation:公开的是基于凝血因子VII与凝血因子Ⅶa的小于5%的比例,其具有的至少50 U / mg的比活性,并在不存在血液凝固抑制剂的稳定性,和其制造方法的准备。
Abstract:
The invention relates to a pharmaceutical preparation for treating blood-clotting disorders which is characterized in that it contains at least one protein selected from the group of pro-proteins of the blood clotting and additionally contains a coagulation-physiologically inert receptor binding competitor. The invention also relates to the medical application of said preparation.
