Contamination of Coagulation Factor Concentrates with Human Parvovirus Genotype 2 DNA is Less Frequent than Contamination with Genotype 1 (B19) DNA

  • Conference paper
34th Hemophilia Symposium

Conclusion

Human parvovirus genotype 1 (B19-like) DNA was frequently present in coagulation factor VIII concentrates used until the beginning of the eighties (contamination rate 81%). In concentrates presently used for replacement therapy, overall genotype 1 DNA contamination was about 42.5%. The level of viral load was similar in formerly used and presently used concentrates.

Genotype 2 DNA was detected much less frequently in coagulation factor concentrates than genotype 1 DNA. Overall, 2.5% of the lots proved to be contaminated. In the present study, all genotype 2 DNA-contaminated lots were also genotype 1-contaminated.
