Fast, effective and safe adenovirus purification with Vivapure AdenoPACK kits

Abstract

The use of Sartorius membrane adsorbers incorporated in AdenoPACK units facilitates and speeds up the purification step for adenovirus preparation, which can take days using traditional methods. Ready-to-use kits are available for processing cell culture volumes from 20 ml to 500 ml, permitting preparation of up to 3 × 1013 purified viral particles in only 2 hours. Plus, the method can be scaled up for adenovirus purification in process scale.
