Genetic Vaccine Platforms Demonstrate Their Potential
In addition, some protein-, VLP-, and killed virus-based non-live vaccines require addition of an adjuvant to improve their immunogenicity due to their non-replicating nature.
Spo…

Can Vaccine Development Be Safely Accelerated?
They possess a surface spike (S) glycoprotein that binds to host cell receptors, and the nature of this protein is believed to determine the main properties of each coronavirus. SARS-CoV was the first…

Applications of Surface Plasmon Resonance for Detection of Bispecific Antibody Activity
Blincyto targets cell surface proteins CD19 and CD3 simultaneously, helping to put T cells within reach of the targeted cancer cell with the goal of allowing the T cells to inject toxins into cancer c…

Recent Advances in the Use of Exoglycosidases to Improve Structural Profiling of N-glycans from Biologic Drugs
On a therapeutic protein, the composition of these glycans can significantly impact the drug’s stability, pharmacokinetics, and biological activity. Thus, glycan structure is a critical quality attrib…

Mechanistic Modeling of Preparative Ion-Exchange Chromatography
Binding models
A key aspect in modeling of IEC is that of the choice of model for protein binding. There are dozens of adsorption models available in the literature. Most of the models are based on …

QbD and PAT in Upstream and Downstream Processing
Protein glycosylation, for example, is generally determined during cell culture and minimally altered in downstream unit operations (at least for uncharged glycosylation species). Using this definitio…

Technology Innovations Improve Process Chromatography Performance
“In downstream processing, the ultimate goal for biopharma manufacturers is to improve recovery and reduce the cost per gram of protein produced. Currently, over 60% of the cost to produce a new biolo…
