  • Patent number: 10112971
    Abstract: A method of purifying a desired protein from a preparation includes (a) providing the preparation in a form having less than about 5% of chromatin residing in an original production medium, (b) contacting the preparation with a nonionic organic polymer and a salt, a concentration of nonionic organic polymer being sufficient to precipitate the desired protein or cause its accretion on a hydrophilic surface, or maintain it in a precipitated state or accreted on the hydrophilic surface, the salt concentration being sufficient to produce greater than physiological conductivity, and (c) contacting the preparation with at least one electropositive surface, optionally in the presence of a salt concentration sufficient to produce greater than physiological conductivity, the desired protein does not substantially adsorb to the at least one electropositive surface while not preventing adsorption of acidic contaminants to the at least one electropositive surface.

  • Patent number: 10112972
    Abstract: A process for purifying fibrinogen from a fibrinogen containing source by precipitation of fibrinogen by a precipitating agent from a fibrinogen containing solution in the presence of one or more chelating agent(s) and removal of the supernatant from the fibrinogen paste, characterized in that fibrinogen is extracted from the paste forming a liquid fraction containing fibrinogen, and an undissolved residue, which is separated from the liquid.

  • Patent number: 10112974
    Abstract: Novel efficient, time-saving and reliable radiofluorination procedures for the production of 18F-labelled active esters via nucleophilic substitution of the corresponding onium precursors with 18F? are described. The active ester including [18F]F-Py-TFP and [18F]TFB produced by one of these methods was used to prepare PSMA-specific PET tracers such as [18F]DCFPyL. The key advantages of these inventive methods are efficiency, short time of preparation and excellent amenability to automation. A pharmaceutical composition containing at least one PSMA-specific PET tracers prepared by the inventive method is useful for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging, especially imaging prostate tumor.

  • Patent number: 10112979
    Abstract: Influenza viruses have traditionally been administered by intramuscular injection. The invention is based on the idea of using alternative routes of delivery for influenza vaccines, more specifically routes that do not require as large a dose of antigen. Delivery of influenza antigen to the Langerhans cells is the route of choice according to the invention. This route has been found to be particularly useful for vaccinating patients who are naïve to influenza virus (i.e. have not previously mounted an immune response to an influenza virus), which means that it is advantageous for immunising young children.
