ウイルス安定化剤は、上記ゼラチン加水分解物を1質量%以上20質量%以下含む。ウイルス安定化剤に含まれる上記ゼラチン加水分解物の濃度が1質量%未満である場合、当該ウイルス安定化剤とウイルスとを含むウイルス含有組成物を構成したとき、ウイルス力価の低下を抑制する作用が些少となるので、所望の効果を奏することが困難となる。ウイルス安定化剤に含まれる上記ゼラチン加水分解物の濃度が20質量%を超える場合、当該ウイルス安定化剤は、操作性が悪化する恐れがある。ウイルス安定化剤は、ウイルス力価の低下をより抑制する観点から、上記ゼラチン加水分解物を2質量%超10質量%以下含むことが好ましい。ウイルス安定化剤中の上記ゼラチン加水分解物の濃度は、ハイドロキシプロリン定量等の公知の方法により測定することができる。
上記ゼラチン加水分解物は、重量平均分子量が10000以下である。上記ゼラチン加水分解物は、重量平均分子量が6000以下であることが好ましい。上記ゼラチン加水分解物は、重量平均分子量が5000以下であることがさらに好ましい。これによりウイルス安定化剤は、2~30℃程度の環境においてゾル状態を維持することができる。さらにウイルス安定化剤とウイルスとを含むウイルス含有組成物を構成した場合、上記組成物中でゼラチン加水分解物は、ウイルスが凝集することを抑制することができ、もってウイルス力価の低下を抑制することができる。詳細なメカニズムは不明であるが、ゼラチン加水分解物は、重量平均分子量が上述の範囲である場合、分子中の親水性領域および疎水性領域の両者が分子表面側(外側)に露出し、エンベロープの有無とは無関係にウイルスの表面と適度な強さの相互作用をすることが可能となるため、ゼラチン加水分解物がウイルスの表面を被覆することによって保護することができると推定されるからである。

本実施形態に係るウイルス安定化剤用ゼラチン加水分解物は、重量平均分子量が10000以下であり、かつ等電点のpHが4.0以上7.0以下である。上記ウイルス安定化剤用ゼラチン加水分解物は、重量平均分子量が6000以下であり、あるいは等電点のpHは4.0~5.5であることが好ましい。具体的には、ウイルス安定化剤用ゼラチン加水分解物については、ゼラチン加水分解物として<ゼラチン加水分解物>の項目で説明したとおりの特徴を有するので、重複する説明は繰り返さない。ウイルス安定化剤用ゼラチン加水分解物は、ゼラチン加水分解物の従来知られていない属性、すなわち未知の属性として、ウイルスを含むことによって後述するようなウイルス含有組成物を構成した場合、当該ウイルス含有組成物中でウイルスが凝集することを抑制する作用を備える。もってウイルス安定化剤用ゼラチン加水分解物は、ウイルス安定化剤の用途に供することができ、冷蔵温度(2~8℃)および25℃前後の室温の両者において上記ウイルス含有組成物を冷凍装置等を要することなく安定的に保存および輸送することができる。
本実施形態に係るウイルス含有組成物は、上記ウイルス安定化剤と、ウイルスとを含む。ウイルス含有組成物は、ウイルス安定化剤を含むことにより、上記組成物中でウイルスが凝集することを抑制することができるので、ウイルス力価の低下を抑制することができる。もって冷蔵温度(2~8℃)および25℃前後の室温の両者において当該ウイルス含有組成物を冷凍装置等を要することなく安定的に保存および輸送することができる。ここでウイルス含有組成物に含まれるウイルス安定化剤は、具体的には、〔ウイルス安定化剤〕の項で説明したとおりの特徴を有するので、重複する説明は繰り返さない。
ウイルス含有組成物は、上述のとおりウイルスを含む。上記ウイルスは、エンベロープを有するDNAウイルス、エンベロープを有さないDNAウイルス、エンベロープを有するRNAウイルスおよびエンベロープを有さないRNAウイルスからなる群より選ばれる少なくとも1種を含むことが好ましい。すなわちウイルス含有組成物を構成するウイルスは、その種類によって用いることが制限されない。さらにウイルス含有組成物は、上記の群から選ばれる1種のウイルスを単独で含んでもよく、2種以上のウイルスを組合せて含んでもよい。このような場合であってもウイルス含有組成物は、ウイルス安定化剤を含むことによって当該ウイルスを冷蔵温度(2~8℃)および25℃前後の室温の両者において安定的に保存および輸送することができる。

ウイルス含有組成物においてウイルス力価のLRVは、ウイルス力価を測定する従来の方法を用いて求めることができ、たとえばウイルス含有組成物中のウイルスのTCID50を求めることにより得ることができる。「TCID50」とは、予め細胞を培養して付着させた試験管または96穴平底プレート等の培養皿上にウイルス希釈液(本明細書においては「ウイルス含有組成物」の希釈液)を接種した場合に、50%の感染が確認されるウイルスの希釈度をいう。上記感染は、たとえば細胞変性効果(CPE)を指標として顕微鏡により確認することができる。ウイルス力価のLRVは、Beherens-Karber法の計算式に従ったTCID50を基に算出することができる。
