Abstract: Lyophilization methods for preparing protein formulations for long-term storage at room temperature or improved stability at refrigeration storage are provided. Specifically, the present application provides lyophilization methods to obtain a target percentage of residual moisture of a lyophilized product, such as 3-5% residual moisture. The secondary drying of the lyophilization can be conducted under controlling rate of desorption under a temperature which is similar to the shelf temperature of the primary drying. Alternatively, the lyophilization can be conducted without a distinguished secondary drying step.

Abstract: Methods for characterizing DNA impurities in adeno-associated virus (AAV) samples or biopharmaceuticals are provided including the use of size exclusion chromatography and spectrophotometry. Methods and compositions are also provided to minimize leakage of packed DNA from AAV vector including the use of excipients, such as a sugar, an amino acid, a surfactant, or polyols.

Abstract: Methods and systems for identifying capsid viral proteins in a sample containing viral vectors are provided, including determining the ratio of the capsid viral proteins of adeno-associated virus. The methods and systems comprise denaturing the capsid viral proteins in the sample, labeling the denatured capsid viral proteins with a lysine-conjugation dye, generating a separation profile of the denatured/labeled capsid viral proteins using microchip capillary electrophoresis, quantifying levels of the capsid viral proteins based on the separation profile, determining a quantification ratio of the capsid viral proteins based on the separation profile, and normalizing the quantification ratio based on lysine contents of the capsid viral proteins.
