Article Description

Preparations of clotting factor VIII (FVIII) are complex protein mixtures, regardless of whether they are made by genetically engineered cells or isolated from human plasma. Commercially available FVIII preparations contain either von Willebrand factor (vWF) or human serum albumin (HSA), both of which function as stabilizers. Apart from these, the preparations contain other plasma proteins as impurities. Such protein mixtures were analyzed with SDS–PAGE and 2D-electrophoresis. Single bands and spots were identified by immunoblot using monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies. The aim was to detect every preparation which has an increased level of FVIII cleavage products.
