Albumin purification
 There is provided in accordance with the practice of this invention a process for separating albumin from an impure protein fraction containing albumin. Contaminants, in an aqueous solution of the impure protein fraction containing albumin, are precipitated from the solution at a pH of from about 4.5 to about 4.7. Additional contaminants that remain soluble are bound to an anion-exchange resin. After the precipitated and anion-exchange-bound contaminants are removed from the albumin-containing solution, the pH of the solution is adjusted to from about 4.7 to about 6.1, and additional contaminants are precipitated. Further contaminants are then bound to an anion-exchange resin, and these precipitated and anion-exchange-bound contaminants are removed from the albumin-containing solution.
