The purpose of the present study was to examine the efficacy and mechanism of the fraction Ⅳ cold ethanol fractionation and pasteurization (60℃ heat treatment for 10h) steps, involved in the manufacture of albumin from human plasma, in the removal and/or inactivation of blood-born viruses. A variety of experimental model viruses for human pathogenic viruses, including the Bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV), Bovine herpes virus (BHV), Murine encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV), and Porcine parvovirus (PPV), were selected for this study. Samples from the relevant stages of the production process were spiked with the viruses, and the amount of virus in each fraction was then quantified using a 50% tissue culture infectious dose (TCID_50). The mechanism of reduction for the enveloped viruses (BHV and BVDV) during fraction Ⅳ fractionation was inactivation rather than partitioning, however, it was partitioning in the case of the non-enveloped viruses (EMCV and PPV). The log reduction factors achieved during fraction Ⅳ fractionation were ≥6.9 for BHV, ≥5.2 for BVDV, 4.9 for EMC, and 4.0 for PPV. Pasteurization was found to be a robust and effective step in inactivating the enveloped viruses as well as EMCV. The log reduction factors achieved during pasteurization were ≥7.0 for BHV, ≥6.1 for BVDV, ≥6.3 for EMCV, and 1.7 for PPV. These results indicate that the production process for albumin has sufficient virusreducing capacity to achieve a high margin of virus safety.
