Comparative study of the quality of domestic albumin solution and foreign analogs

: The quality and standards of albumin solutions (5, 10 and 20%) made in this country meet the requirements of national specification documentation. This, however, lacks some standards included into European Pharmacopoeia and mandatory for foreign manufacturers (Na and K ions, hemipigments, polymers, thermostability). The comparative tests of the albumin solutions made in Russia and abroad by conventional European standards showed that Russian solutions by some parameters are inferior to foreign samples. This urges improvement of the solution production technology as well as updating technical documents regulating the product quality.
