The enhancement of vesicular stomatitis virus plaques on human embryonic lung cells in the presence of Tween 80 or Aquasol A was studied to determine the optimal conditions for the enhancement. Enhanced numbers and sizes of vesicular stomatitis virus plaques occurred when Aquasol A or Tween 80 was added to the cell culture 30 min before virus adsorption but not when added after adsorption. These substances did not have a direct effect on the virus and did not have an effect on virus adsorption or penetration. A few other viruses and cell systems were also studied to determine if enhancement would extend to other viruses and cell systems. The cell system seemed to be important since enhancement of vesicular stomatitis virus plating efficiency did not occur on chicken embryo cells. However, the virus was also important since vaccinia virus plating efficiency was not enhanced on the human embryonic lung cell. The greatest enhancement encountered was the increase in the plating efficiency of Friend leukemia virus on S+L- cells.

The treatment of plasma with organic solvent/detergent mixtures at the time of plasma collection or pooling could reduce the exposure of technical staff to infectious viruses and enhance the viral safety of the final product. Treatment of plasma for 4 hours with 2-percent tri(n-butyl)phosphate (TNBP) at 37 degrees C, with 1-percent TNBP and 1-percent polyoxyethylensorbitan monooleate (Tween 80) at 30 degrees C, or with 1-percent TNBP and 1-percent polyoxyethylene ethers, (Triton X-45) at 30 degrees C resulted in the rapid and complete inactivation of greater than or equal to 10(4) tissue culture-infectious doses (TCID50) of vesicular stomatitis and Sindbis viruses, which are used as surrogates. Treatment of plasma with TNBP and TNBP and Tween-80 was shown to inactivate greater than or equal to 10(4) TCID50 of human immunodeficiency virus. TNBP treatment of plasma contaminated with 10(6) chimpanzee-infectious doses (CID50) of hepatitis B virus and 10(5) CID50 of non-A,non-B hepatitis virus prevented the transmission of hepatitis to chimpanzees. Immediately after treatment of plasma with 2-percent TNBP, the recovery of factors VIII, IX, and V and antithrombin III was 80, 90, 40, and 100 percent, respectively. Recovery of all factors was greater than or equal to 90 percent after treatment with TNBP and detergent mixtures. Treated plasma was fractionated by standard techniques into antihemophilic factor and prothrombin complex concentrates, immune globulin, and albumin. Prior treatment with TNBP or TNBP and detergent did not affect the separations of desired proteins. Therefore, it appears possible to inactivate viruses in plasma before the execution of standard fractionation procedures.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

We have characterized a highly purified (HP) factor IX concentrate intended for therapy of hemophilia B. The product has been prepared from pooled human plasma using a large-scale procedure combining three conventional chromatographic steps based on DEAE ion exchange and affinity on immobilized heparin. The specific activity of the product was 119 +/- 10 IU factor IX:c/mg protein (n = 15), corresponding to a purification factor of about 9,000. The concentrate was free of the vitamin K-dependent clotting factors II, VII and X and of proteins C and S. Most of the contaminants found in factor IX complex concentrate (PCC) were absent in this new product. High-molecular-weight kininogen, factors VIII, XI, XII or prekallikrein were not detected. There were no activated factors, such as factors IXa, and Xa, no thrombin and no phospholipids. Only two contaminants could be detected: C4 and inter-alpha-trypsin inhibitor (about 0.8 and 1.2 mg/1,000 IU factor IX:c, respectively). The purity of the product, as compared to PCC, was confirmed by sodium dodecylsulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, cellulose acetate electrophoresis, Grabar-Williams immunoelectrophoresis, and bidimensional immunoelectrophoresis. Thrombogenicity tests in rabbits revealed that the HP factor IX tested had a lower thrombogenic power than the PCC tested. The concentrate has been subjected to a 0.3% tri(n-butyl) phosphate-1% Tween 80 treatment for 6h at 25 degrees C during its production to reduce or eliminate the risk of transmission of plasma-borne lipid-enveloped viruses. These conditions inactivated more than 3.8 log10 of vesicular stomatitis virus and more than 4.3 log10 of sindbis virus within 1 and 2 h of treatment, respectively.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Goose erythrocyte membranes were isolated and tested for their ability to compete with red cell receptors for vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) attachment and fusion at acidic pH. Crude membranes, solubilized with Triton X-100, Tween 80 and octyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside, showed a dose-dependent inhibitory effect on virus binding and haemolysis. The chemical nature of the active molecules was investigated by enzyme digestion and by separation of purified components. Only the lipid moiety, specifically phospholipid and glycolipid, was found to inhibit VSV attachment; a more detailed analysis of these molecules showed that phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylserine and GM3 ganglioside were responsible for the inhibitory activity and could therefore represent VSV binding sites on goose erythrocyte membranes. Removal of negatively charged groups from these molecules by enzymic treatment significantly reduced their activity, suggesting that electrostatic interactions play an important role in the binding of VSV to the cell surface. Enzymic digestion of whole erythrocytes confirmed the involvement of membrane lipid molecules in the cell surface receptor for VSV.

A human solvent-detergent (SD)-treated factor IX concentrate has been produced from cryoprecipitate-poor plasma using DEAE-Sepharose CL-6B and heparin-Sepharose CL-6B chromatography. The DEAE eluate was incubated with an SD mixture [0.3% tri(n-butyl) phosphate-1% Tween 80, 6-h at 24 degrees C] which was found to inactivate, in less than 1 h, more than 3.8 log10 of vesicular stomatitis virus and more than 4.8 log10 of Sindbis virus; the SD was removed by a subsequent heparin adsorption step. The specific activity of the concentrate was 10.9 +/- 1.3 IU factor IX: c/mg protein (n = 15). The factor IX coagulant to antigen ratio was 0.7 +/- 0.1. The concentrate was essentially free of factors II, VII and X, and protein C. The usual major contaminants of prothrombin complex concentrate (PCC) were absent: the concentrate contained about 94% alpha-1 proteins, and only 4 major proteins were resolved by SDS-PAGE (respective apparent molecular weight: 130, 86, 76 and 69 kilodaltons), and by crossed immunoelectrophoresis against an anti-PCC serum. The nonactivated partial thromboplastin time was equivalent to that of PCC; the product was devoid of factor IXa, of other activated procoagulant factors and of coagulant-active phospholipids (removed with SD in the heparin breakthrough fraction). Animal studies using the Wessler test and acute-toxicity test in rabbits revealed no adverse side effects. SD treatment could thus be used to inactivate viruses in factor IX concentrate and improve the safety of replacement therapy in hemophilia B.

Five nonionic detergents (Tweens 20, 40, 60, and 80, and Triton WR-1339) were tested for their ability to inactivate four Mycoplasma species which are common contaminants of animal cell cultures. Tween 20 was found to be the most effective, in that a concentration of 2.5 mg/ml completely inactivated cultures of M. hominis, M. hyorhinis, and Acholeplasma laidlawii within 1 hr and a culture of M. orale within 3 hr. The other detergents exhibited various degree of activity against the different mycoplasmas, with Triton WR-1339 being the least effective. The virucidal activity of the detergents was determined for six viruses. All four Tween compounds were highly virucidal for herpes simplex virus. Tween 20 also exhibited virucidal effects against vesicular stomatitis virus, California encephalitis virus, and Newcastle disease virus, and Tween 80 was found to be active against California encephalitis and Newcastle disease viruses. Detergent treatment procedures were effective in two instances in eliminating mycoplasma contaminants from virus preparations while the preparations retained most of the viral infectivity. The limitations of this technique for routine use are discussed.

The inactivation of enveloped viruses by two different solvent/detergent combinations, i.e. tri-n-butyl phosphate (TNBP)/Triton X-100 or TNBP/Tween 80, has been investigated using a high purity factor VIII (Replenate) and factor IX (Replenine) respectively. Treatment with TNBP/Triton X-100 rapidly inactivated all the typical enveloped viruses tested, i.e. Sindbis, semliki forest virus (SFV), herpes simplex virus type-1 (HSV-1) and vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV), by 3.7-5.8 log within 15 seconds. While virus inactivation with TNBP/Tween 80 was slower, effective inactivation of Sindbis, HSV-1, VSV and human immunodeficiency virus type-1, i.e. 4.1-->6.3 log, occurred within 30 minutes. In contrast, vaccinia virus was relatively resistant to inactivation in either of these solvent/detergent combinations. Incubation times of 10 minutes for TNBP/Triton X-100 or 6-24 hours for TNBP/Tween 80, were required to reach inactivation levels of about 4 log.

A mixture of Tri-n-butyl phosphate (TNBP) and Polysorbate 80 (Tween 80) is often used for virus inactivation during the manufacture of medicinal products derived from human plasma. This procedure, known as solvent/detergent treatment, is of high effectiveness for inactivation of enveloped viruses. Tween 80 can be manufactured from bovine tallow or from vegetable material. As the bovine-derived Tween 80 is normally used for the solvent/detergent treatment, the question has been raised whether vegetable-derived Tween 80 can be applied as an alternative substance for the solvent/detergent treatment. Comparable inactivation studies were therefore performed using Vesicular Stomatitis Virus (VSV), Pseudorabiesvirus (PRV), Semliki Forest Virus (SFV) and Bovine Diarrhoea Virus (BVDV). In principle, no differences were observed in the effectiveness of the solvent/detergent treatment when bovine or vegetable-derived Tween 80 was used. The comparability in the efficiency of both detergents for virus inactivation was shown to be independent of solvent/detergent concentration, of temperature (16 degrees C and 6 degrees C vs. 27 degrees C and 25 degrees C) and protein concentration (10% and 5% human albumin). In summary, vegetable-derived Tween 80 is of the same effectiveness as bovine-derived Tween 80, when used for virus inactivation by the solvent/detergent treatment.
