Recently, a study titled "Validation and implementation of Planova™ BioEX virus filters in the manufacture of a new liquid intravenous immunoglobulin in China" was published on Biologicals (Ma et al, 2018). The study reports the development and optimization of a manufacturing-scale virus removal step for intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) using Planova™ BioEX.

From the results, it was demonstrated that improved viral safety of IVIG can be assured by implementing a virus removal step using Planova™ BioEX to ensure effective parvovirus clearance. Furthermore, excellent protein recovery was achieved and there was no detectable impact on product biochemical properties.
