Title:
FILTRATION METHOD FOR PROTEIN-CONTAINING LIQUID
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/230397
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A filtration method for a protein-containing liquid, said liquid containing a protein at a concentration of 20-100 mg/mL inclusive, which comprises a prefiltration step for filtering the protein-containing liquid through a prefilter, said prefilter having a pore diameter of 0.08-0.25 μm and comprising a hydrophobic resin, and a virus removal step for, after the prefiltration step, filtering the protein-containing liquid through a virus removal membrane comprising a synthetic polymer, wherein the protein-containing liquid before subjected to the prefiltration step contains a trimeric or larger protein multimer, which has an average diameter of less than 100 nm, in an amount of 0.25 g or greater per square meter of the virus removal membrane.
