Understanding mAb aggregation during low pH viral inactivation and subsequent neutralization.

Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and related recombinant proteins continue to gain importance in the treatment of a great variety of diseases. Despite significant advances, their manufacturing can still present challenges owing to their molecular complexity and stringent regulations with respect to product purity, stability, safety, and so forth. In this context, protein aggregates are of particular concern due to their immunogenic potential.
