Unite Advanced Manufacturing Process
    Hualan employs world-class manufacturing equipment and strict quality management. Under the high level purification condition, we realize the highest utilization ratio of plasma by means of world advanced united manufacturing process. Conditions of plasma protein component separation are soft, which effectively maintains high purity and stability of protein particles and product and high activity of plasma protein.

Guarantee of Blood Resource Safety
    Plasma used for manufacturing the product comes from healthy people in areas where incidence of the disease are low. Hualan is the first manufacturer in China who uses the plasmapheresis machine, automatic vial washing and sterile filling line, “Look Back” system and 90 days’ ”window period” system, so that effectively guarantees the safety of product and people who donate plasma.
    For the test for source plasma, ELISA is adopted several times to test hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis C virus antibody (Anti-HCV) and HIV 1+2 virus antibody (Anti-HIV1+2); and the Nucleic Acid Amplification Techniques (NAT) is adopted to test HBV-DNA, HCV-RNA and HIV-RNA. The tests are conducted according to standards of the EU and WHO.
