Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for separating a mature von Willebrand Factor (mat-VWF) from von Willebrand Factor pro-peptide (VWF-PP) by incubating a composition comprising inducing dissociation of mat-VWF and VWF-PP by disruption of the non-covalently associated mat-VWF and VWF-PP, wherein said dissociation is induced by: (i) addition of at least one chelating agent, or (ii) increasing the pH to a pH of at least 7, and then collecting said mat-VWF to obtain a high purity, propeptide depleted mature VWF (mat-VWF).
