“…For example, chimpanzee blood was used to show that inactivation of HBV in blood products with heat was only partially successful (Shikata et al 1978;Hollinger et al 1984;Purcell et al 1985;Lelie et al 1987). Over the next 15 years, many different inactivation strategies were used, including urea/formalin treatment (Tabor et al 1983a), UV-irradiation alone and in combination with Tween 80 and b-propiolactone (Stephan et al 1981;Prince et al 1983a,b), chloroform treatment (Feinstone et al 1983), exposure to Tween 80 and ether at 4˚C (Prince et al 1984a), glutaraldehyde or ethyl alcohol treatment (Kobayashi et al 1984), exposure to heat (Hollinger et al 1984;Kobayashi et al 1984;Purcell et al 1985;Lelie et al 1987), photochemical treatment (Alter et al 1988;Lin et al 2005), ion exchange chromatography (Zolton et al 1985), various disinfectants (Prince et al 1993), and also antibodies to HBV (Tabor et al 1980a;Brummelhuis et al 1983).…”
