Abstract
The invention relates to a method for purifying a target substance starting from a fluid to be treated which comprises at least one impurity. The method comprises treatment of a stream of the fluid to be treated using a chromatography step in a first separation unit, collection of a fraction enriched with the target substance in a first tank, and viral inactivation of the fraction enriched with the target substance. The viral inactivation comprises passing the fraction enriched with the target substance through a second separation unit, passing a viral inactivation solution through the second separation unit, mixing, and collecting the mixture in the second tank to obtain a fraction depleted of active virus. The method further comprises treatment of the fraction depleted of active virus using a chromatography step in the second separation unit and collection of a fraction more enriched with the target substance.
