Abstract

The present invention is broadly directed to a method for reducing autodegradation of activated protein C during processing and purification. The present invention provides aqueous activated protein C solutions and an improved method of processing of such solutions, comprising conducting such processing at an ionic strength of greater than 150 mM and at a pH of about 5.5 to less than 6.3.
