Simply put, the best way to control a critical process parameter (CPP) is to measure that specific parameter, integrate the live signal into your control system, and apply a smart feedback algorithm for an automated control loop. The challenge in doing this for bioprocesses has been due, in part, to the complex, highly dynamic, and variable nature of the process along with the lack of robust, scalable, and multiformat (single-use or multiuse) technologies that can monitor in real time such…
Ajinomoto Bio-Pharma Services has launched a bioconjugation technology it says has high productivity and short conjugation reaction times. According to contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) Aji Bio-Pharma, its AJICAP technology lets antibody-drug conjugates (ADC) developers better control the location of payload conjugation to an antibody and fine tune the quantity of payload attached. “The technology deploys a proprietary affinity peptide to direct controlled conjugation to a specific sites on the antibody in a relatively straight forward synthetic process,†Jason…
