Enrichment of adeno-associated virus serotype 5 full capsids by anion exchange chromatography with dual salt elution gradients.

Adeno-associated virus-based gene therapies have demonstrated substantial therapeutic benefit for the treatment of genetic disorders. In manufacturing processes, viral capsids are produced with and without the encapsidated gene of interest. Capsids devoid of the gene of interest, or "empty" capsids, represent a product-related impurity.
