Abstract: A filter press device includes a supporting frame and elongated side rails disposed parallel and horizontally on the supporting frame. A following head assembly is disposed on an end portion of the supporting frame, and a following head assembly is movably disposed on another end portion of the supporting frame. The elongated side rails support a combination of filter plates of varying sizes through one or more adapters. An adapter plate interposes between adjacent filter plates of different sizes, providing fluidic communication between the different sized filter plates.

Abstract: Described is a method for preparing an Immunoglobulin G (IgG) enriched fraction from a C1-INH depleted plasma supernatant. Isolation of Immunoglobulin G (IgG) enriched fraction from a C1-INH depleted plasma supernatant provided an alternative starting material for the manufacturing process. In the present invention, C1-INH depleted plasma supernatant is treated with heparin before further processing.
