PROCESS FOR PRODUCING BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE PLASMINOGEN ACTIVATOR

摘要

Biologically active human tissue-type plasminogen activator is produced in a host cell culture by removing from the medium of the culture all medium components which are detrimental to recovery and activity of the plasminogen activator. For example, cross filtration may be used to carry out medium exchange during culture, or the detrimental components may be removed prior to culturing. The cells retain their expression capability after exclusion of the harmful substances so that production of active plasminogen activator can be effected.
