Filed:
Aug 30, 1999
Appl. No.:
09/385166
Inventors:
Julian L. Ambrus - Buffalo NY 14222-1509
David O. Scamurra - Eggertsville NY 14226
International Classification:
A61K 3900
US Classification:
4241401, 210645, 210646, 435 4, 435 6, 435 71, 436501, 5303881, 5303891, 5303894, 604 401, 604 501, 604 502
Abstract:
This invention discloses a method for reducing the viral load by removal of viruses or fragments or components thereof from the blood by extracorporeally circulating blood through hollow fibers which have in the porous exterior surface, immobilized affinity molecules having specificity for viral components. Passage of the fluid through the hollow fibers causes the viral particles to bind to the affinity molecules thereby reducing the viral load in the effluent.
