LIQUID IMMUNOGLOBULIN FORMULATIONS

摘要

Immunoglobulin preparations, particularly liquid preparations of immunoglobulin G for intravenous infusion, are stabilized against dimer formation by the addition of one or more amphiphilic stabilizers. Preferred amphiphilic stabilizers are nicotinic acid derivatives, particularly nicotinamide, and naturally-occurring alpha -amino acids having a lipophilic side chain, for example phenylalanine, proline, leucine and isoleucine.
