  • Erythropoietin with high specific activity
    Patent number: 7659373
    Abstract: The invention concerns new EPO compositions with high specific activity which are characterized by a high proportion of N-acetyl-lactosamine units or/and tetraantennary branches in the carbohydrate structure. In addition the invention concerns a process for producing such EPO products.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 9, 2005
    Date of Patent: February 9, 2010
    Assignee: Roche Diagnostics GmbH

  • Process for producing erythropoietin containing no animal proteins
    Patent number: 6471500
    Abstract: A process for producing erythropoietin which is free of foreign animal proteins except for the proteins of the host cell, wherein DNA coding for EPO is expressed in a eukaryotic host cell and the host cell is cultured in a medium free of natural mammalian proteins. The erythropoietin is chromatographically purified using dye affinity chromatography, chromatography on hydroxyapatite, reversed phase chromatography, and anion exchange chromatography. The resulting preparation contains less than 100 ppm of proteins derived from the host cell, and less than 10 pg of host cell DNA per 83 &mgr;g erythropoietin.
    Type: Grant
