Downstream Processing White Papers and Case Studies

51. Compound Profiling And Toxicity

    Utilizing a systems approach to drug discovery has generated a multitude of high affinity compounds for various classes of molecular targets with different degrees of disease state validation.

52. Automating Protein Purification Processes Achieves Reliable Results And Reproducibility 10/16/2013

    ÄKTA start is an easy-to-use, reliable protein purification system. In this application note it is described how Erica, a post-doctoral researcher, used ÄKTA start to purify GST-tagged protein using a predefined method template, a GSTrap FF column, and a Frac30 fraction collector. 

53. Best Practices For Process Scale Column Packing Of CHT™ Ceramic Hydroxyapatite Media

    CHT ceramic hydroxyapatite media require specific considerations during process-scale chromatography packing due to high specific gravity, rapid settling rate, and sensitivity to mechanical shear.

54. Continuous Biomanufacturing: 10 Reasons Sponsors Hesitate

    The industry is abuzz with talk about continuous biomanufacturing (CB), and its virtues have been well described. Here we will look at some of the barriers or concerns perceived to limit its value to the industry. Justified or not, quite a few concerns have been expressed regarding the implementation of this new, rather disruptive technology. 

55. Global Biochemical Profiling For Bioprocess Optimization 6/12/2013

    It is widely understood that the production phase of bioprocessing can have a significant impact on the overall profitability of the biopharmaceutical.

56. White Paper: Capillary Electrophoresis — A Simple Technique

    In 1989, Beckman Instruments introduced the first fully automated capillary electrophoresis instrument (P/ACE™ 2000) to the scientific community. At that time, CE demonstrated exceptional resolving of selected compounds, but the new technology lacked a track record of applications. By Beckman Coulter, Inc.

57. White Paper: Comparability Of The Cell-Freeze® (Charter Medical) Freezing Bag To The Cryocyte™ (Baxter) Bag For Cryogenic Storage Of Human Hematopoietic Progenitor Cells 7/11/2011
    Successful cryopreservation of hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPC) is dependent upon a number of factors, including the biopreservation media, freezing rates, and storage using sterile, cryogenically durable storage bags. The Cell-Freeze® cryogenic storage containers are 510(k) cleared for storage, preservation and transfer of hematopoietic progenitor stem cells (HPC’s). By Charter Medical, Ltd.
58. Selecting The Optimal Resins For Endotoxin Depletion In Process Purification 8/3/2016

    A guide to effectively remove endotoxins with versatile process resins.

59. A Purification Strategy For Clinical-Grade Monoclonal Antibody 10/3/2016

    mAbs are currently the most important class of therapeutic proteins. Advances in upstream process technologies have led to tremendous improvement of mAb titers in mammalian cell culture. 

60. Important Considerations For Implementing A Single-Use Biomanufacturing Strategy 10/18/2013

    Recent trends in biomanufacturing technology and the biopharmaceutical market are supporting the increased adoption of single-use (SU) manufacturing systems. On the demand-side, the biopharma industry is focusing on niche and rare diseases with smaller patient populations, resulting in the need for smaller, more agile biomanufacturing capacity. By Jodi M.
