Plasma Fractionation and Blood Transfusion

Part of the book series: Developments in Hematology and Immunology ((DIHI,volume 13))

Abstract

Plasma fractionation on a large scale (batch sizes 1000–5000 litres) is still carried out on the basis of the methods 6 and 9 developed by E.J. Cohn. However, cold ethanol precipitation is generally restricted to the production of albumin and intra-muscular IgG. Of all the other plasma proteins produced for therapeutic use, Factor VIII is probably the only protein not produced on a routine basis by chromatography. Thus factor IX concentrate, antithrombin III, fibronectin, C-l esterase inhibitor are produced chromatographically as side fractions of ethanol precipitation (1). For these proteins and for specific immune globulins, especially anti-D(Rh) IgG, ion exchange or affinity chromatography are the current methods of choice.
