Refolding of Biopharmaceuticals by FOLDTEC: A Case Study on Recombinant Thrombin

by

This webcast features: Dr. Andreas Anton, Director Bioprocess Development and Dr. Sebastian Schuck, Senior Manager Business Development, Wacker Biotech While WACKER’s own technology ESETEC® has proven highly efficient in producing soluble proteins and antibody fragments via secretion, poorly soluble substances form aggregated inclusion bodies within the cell, which contain incorrectly and/or incompletely folded target proteins. Recently Wacker Biotech introduced FOLDTEC®, its novel refolding technology for bioengineered pharmaceutical proteins. With this new technology, biopharmaceuticals that tend to aggregate can be efficiently…

Increased Monoclonal Antibody Resolution with TSKgel® UP-SW3000 Columns

by

The antibody therapeutics market is enjoying high growth rates, the major areas of therapeutic application being cancer and immune/inflammation-related disorders including arthritis and multiple sclerosis. In 2013, six of the top ten best-selling global drug brands were monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and more than 400 mAbs were in clinical trials. The characterization of these complex biomolecules is a major challenge in process monitoring and quality control. The main product characteristics to be monitored are aggregate and fragment content, glycosylation pattern and…

A Fresh Approach to Process and Cost Efficiencies in Early Clinical and Biosimilars Production

by , , , , and

This poster will introduce Praestoâ„¢ AC protein A resin and ProcessReady pre-packed columns from Purolite. Platform processes for MAbs manufacturing have long been used to save time and costs. The use of highly productive, cost- effective resins in such platforms can magnify these savings, and the addition of ready-to use formats can further enhance process efficiencies. Our approach is to maximize these efficiencies and cost savings in early clinical-phase production and in the manufacture of biosimilars by using stage-appropriate materials…
