Virus-safe monomeric human immunoglobulin A and methods for its production

摘要

A virus-safe monomeric human IgA is described which is essentially free of IgG. The IgA according to the invention is obtainable according to a process in which (a) an IgA-containing fraction is subjected to a purification such that a monomeric IgA which is essentially free of IgG is obtained and (b) the obtained product is subjected to a process for the inactivation of viruses.
