Abstract: A drum cleaning device (65) has a nozzle (66). The drum cleaning device (65) is disposed in the upstream from a peel roller (34). A dope (21) is cast onto a surface of the casting drum(32) by using a casting die (30). The casting drum(32) is rotated to form a casting film(33) on the surface. The casting film(33) is cooled by the casting drum(32). Deposits containing fatty acid ester as a main component are precipitated from the casting film(33) onto the surface. The peel roller (34) peels off the casting film(33) as a wet film(38). The drum cleaning device (65) blasts gas mixture containing air and dry ice particles from the nozzle (66) onto the surface.

Abstract: A dope is cast onto a drum whose surface is cooled, so as to form a casting film. After the peeling of the casting film, a cleaning gas containing dry ice particles is applied to a periphery of the casting drum with use of a drum cleaning unit. Thus the dry ice particles collide to the periphery of the casting drum, and the colliding energy is effective of removing from the periphery an organic material adhered on the casting drum. The organic material mainly contains aliphatic acid, aliphatic acid ester and metal salt of aliphatic acid. Before the increase of the amount of the organic material, it is removed and therefore isn't transmitted onto the surface of the casting film. Thus a high quality film having no optical unevenness is produced without the decrease of the productivity.

Abstract: The invention provides a process for purifying recombinant human serum albumin (rHSA) by heating a-culture medium containing rHSA and the rHSA-producing host cells, feeding said heated solution upwardly into a fluidized bed in which adsorbent particles are suspended to effect contacting with the adsorbent particles and then recovering the adsorbed fraction containing the rHSA, and a composition comprising rHSA which shows a A350/A280 ratio of below 0.015, when formulated into a 25% solution of said albumin.

Abstract: Disclosed is an infusion preparation for nutrient supply use. It comprises a sugar, amino acids, electrolytes and a fat emulsion. It has an excellent shelf life without causing precipitation, denaturation and the like in spite of the simultaneous presence of these components. Also disclosed is a container filled with infusion liquids comprising a first and a second compartment separated from each other by a separation means, wherein an infusion liquid containing a fat emulsion and a sugar is included in the first compartment and another infusion liquid containing amino acids and electrolytes is included in the second compartment. Further disclosed are an infusion preparation comprising a fat emulsion and a sugar, and an infusion preparation comprising amino acids and electrolytes.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide an infusion preparation set (a container filled with infusion liquids) useful for preparation of an infusion liquid containing sugars, amino acids, electrolytes, a fat emulsion and vitamins. The present invention is constituted by the use of a container having two compartments which are separated from each other by a separation means, which contains an infusion liquid comprising a fat emulsion, sugars, fat-soluble vitamins and specified water-soluble vitamins in the first compartment and an infusion liquid comprising amino acids, electrolytes and other specified water-soluble vitamins in the second compartment. An infusion preparation containing sugars, amino acids, electrolytes, a fat emulsion and vitamins can be obtained easily and aseptically upon use, by simply removing a separation means and mixing the infusion liquids included in the first and second compartments.

Abstract: The present invention aims at providing an alimentative infusion liquid which has improved stability and preservability and can be administered through a peripheral vein. The infusion liquid contains sugars, amino acids, electrolytes and a fat emulsion at a specific mixing ratio and has a specific pH value and a titratable acidity. The alimentative infusion liquid of the present invention containing the above-described components has good preservability without suffering from precipitation, denaturation and the like problems. Further, since the pH value is adjusted to a specific level and the titratable acidity is retained low, administration of the infusion liquid through a peripheral vein does not cause troubles such as angialiga.

Abstract: Human serum albumin obtained by gene manipulation techniques can be purified by a combination of specified steps in which a culture supernatant obtained from a human serum albumin-producing host is subjected to ultrafiltration, heat treatment, acid treatment and another ultrafiltration, followed by subsequent treatments with a cation exchanger, a hydrophobic chromatography carrier and an anion exchanger, and by salting-out to thereby obtain a pure form of human serum albumin which contains substantially no proteinous and polysaccharide contaminants, which is formulated into a pharmaceutical preparation. The thus obtained human serum albumin can further be purified by treating recombinant human serum albumin with a hydrophobic chromatography carrier at pH of 2 to 5 and a salt concentration of 0.4 to 1 and exposing the carrier to a pH of 6 to 8 and a salt concentration of 0.01 to 0.
