The present invention relates to an influenza virus production method using a disposable culture process system, and a test for quickly checking conditions for influenza virus antigen purification. According to the present invention, conditions for influenza surface antigen obtainment (purification) may be quickly and reliably checked according to the unique method of the present invention, even without using the single radial immunodiffusion technique which is conventionally used as a standard test method when producing influenza vaccines, and thus the production time for an influenza surface antigen subunit vaccine is notably reduced, thereby enabling quick response as a result of rapid vaccine development/manufacturing, even in a rapid novel influenza pandemic situation. In addition, according to the influenza virus production method of the present invention, culture media exchange may be carried out in an airtight system by using a continuous low-speed centrifuge using a disposable bag, and thus the possibility of contamination occurring during the virus production process may be greatly reduced.

A solid particulate composition including, based on the total weight of the composition, a) 20 to 95 wt. % of at least one water-soluble carrier material selected from hydrous salts of which the water vapor partial pressure corresponds, at a specific temperature in the range from 30 to 100° C., to the H.sub.2O partial pressure of the saturated solution of salt; b) 0.1 to 20 wt. % fragrance; and c) 0.1 to 30 wt. % of at least one textile-care compound. The invention further relates to the use and a method for the preparation of a solid particulate composition.

A method and composition for removing contaminant material from industrial equipment are disclosed herein. The method includes providing a solvent composition having methyl soyate, N-methylpyrrolidinone, an additional solvent, and a cationic surfactant. The method also includes contacting the contaminant material with the solvent composition and allowing the solvent composition to react with the contaminant material such that at least a portion of the contaminant material is no longer attached to the industrial equipment.
