The invention provides a method for the purification, of a virus comprising a step of ultrafiltration wherein the reteniate contains the virus, wherein back pressure of at least 5 kPa is applied on the permeate side. The invention also provides a method for purification of a recombinant adenovirus, said method consisting essentially of: a) culturing cells that are infected with said recombinant adenovirus, b) lysing said cells and removing free nucleic acid, to provide a lysate comprising the recombinant adenovirus, c) clarifying the lysate to obtain an adenovirus preparation, d) subject the adenovirus preparation to ultrafiltration, wherein the adenovirus preparation is in the retentate, to concentrate the adenovirus preparation, e) subjecting the adenovirus preparation of step d) to ultrafiltration, wherein the adenovirus preparation is in the retenate and exchanging it with at least 5 diafiltration volumes (DFVs) of buffer, wherein in steps d) and e) back pressure of at least 5 kPa is applied on the permeate side.
