Design Space Assessment of Virus Inactivation in Plasma‐Derived Matrices Establishes a Single Detergent Alternative to TX‐100‐Containing Mixes

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The detergent Triton X‐100 (TX‐100) is a typical component of solvent/detergent (S/D) mixes applied for virus inactivation steps of biomanufacturing processes, yet environmentally unfavorable properties have led to restrictions on its use. Deviron 13‐S9 has recently been described as an eco‐friendly TX‐100 alternative, with powerful virus ...
