The container is being placed into a tray that holds several other similar containers, all filled with the same pink liquid. This scene is likely taking place in a controlled laboratory environment, indicating precision and care in scientific research or experimentation, possibly involving cell cultures or chemical analysis.

Keys to Success: Allogeneic Cell Therapy Manufacturing

Robust commercial scale bioprocessing workflows must be established along with strategies for sterility assurance during the production of allogeneic products.
Bioprocessing considerations include:
• Establishing a robust process
• Ensuring process compatibility
• Creating the sampling plan
• Planning for media production

Sterility assurance considerations include:
• Using GMP materials
• Qualifying raw materials
• Adopting closed processing
• Performing aseptic process simulations
• Ensuring proper sterile filtration
• Understanding extractables, leachables, and particulates

Optimizing AAV Manufacturing: Process Intensification with High Salt Lysis and Salt Tolerant Endonuclease

The AAV vector manufacturing process involves cell lysis and nuclease treatment. Advanced techniques, such as using high salt concentration and a salt-tolerant endonuclease, can enhance vector titer and infectivity. Additionally, the development of a non-animal origin, salt-tolerant Benzonase® endonuclease has shown significant impact on AAV5 capsid titers and AAV2 vector infectivity.

Watch Now! Principles and Lessons Learned from the Benzonase® Success Story

In this webinar, you will learn:
• Key principles of Business Continuity Management
• Best practices for a robust supply chain
• How it translates into success stories, like with the Benzonase® family.

Taking the Lead: Establishing the First GMP Guideline for Cell Culture Media

While cell culture media products play a critical role in the production of many types of therapeutics, there were no specific regulations or GMP certifications governing their use.
• Historically, cell culture media producers used ISO 9001, ISO 13485, and 21 CFR Part 820 to demonstrate product quality and consistency.
• A review of existing standards (ANSI, NSF, ICH, CFR, IPEC-PQG) revealed they were not applicable to cell culture media production processes.
• Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany collaborated with EXCiPACT and industry experts to create a GMP standard for cell culture media, applying the EXCiPACT GMP excipient standard to pharmaceutical auxiliary materials (PAMs), which include cell culture media.

In-Line Real-Time Monitoring of CHO Cell Culture Process Parameters using Raman Spectroscopy

• Traditional cell culture monitoring offers limited insights, while real-time measurement of critical process parameters provides direct indications of culture state.
• Implementing process analytical technology (PAT) for in-line, real-time measurements improves process understanding, decreases risk, and enables more advanced process control.

Integrated Glucose Control in CHO Culture via Raman Spectroscopy

• Integration of Raman spectroscopy with an automated feedback loop revolutionizes biopharmaceutical manufacturing, enabling real-time glucose level monitoring and precise maintenance for optimal process quality and glycosylation.
• This innovative approach eliminates manual sampling, reduces contamination risks, and ensures reliable, real-time process control, empowering users to navigate upstream biopharmaceutical manufacturing with confidence.

Supply Spotlight

Coming Full Circle with Biopharma Recycling

This post discusses the environmental challenges posed by the Biopharmaceutical industry’s heavy reliance on single-use systems and the resulting plastic waste. It highlights the industry’s quest for sustainable solutions through advanced recycling methods to achieve circularity.

Climate Neutrality in the Biopharma Industry, How Do We Get There?

To achieve climate target goals, Life Science companies need to put sustainability at the front of business decisions.

Can we change the Biopharma Supply Chain Game so that Everyone Gets a Trophy?

There is a popular board game based on a global disease outbreak that is generally rated 5 stars.  As for the real Covid-19 pandemic, it would be hard to find a single person in the Biopharma industry who would give the supply chain performance during the pandemic that kind of high review.
