Closer Look At Cell Membrane Shows Cholesterol 'Keeping Order'
Cell membranes form the “skin” of most every cell in your body, but the ability to view them up close and in motion cannot be rendered by many experimental techniques. A team of scientists working at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and University of California, Irvine, recently developed a way to magnify them dramatically.

3 Critical Considerations For Cell Therapy Manufacturing
While autologous cell therapies offer promise in the way of patient treatment, manufacturing them is a complex process requiring thorough understanding of the cell type(s) that a company will be providing as therapy. When it comes to ensuring the successful manufacturing of a cell therapy drug, Ross Tubo, chief scientific officer at Vericel Corporation, says there are three critical areas where particular attention should be paid.

Monoclonal Antibody Purification Platform Using High-Capacity Protein A And Mixed-Mode Chromatography
The first step in purification of an important class of therapeutic proteins, the polyclonal or monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), is their capture from plasma or tissue culture supernatants. Protein A–based media are by far the most common class of affinity products used for this purpose.

Removal Of Host Cell Proteins During Monoclonal Antibody Purification
Protein A chromatography is a widely used and highly successful method of purifying recombinant monoclonal antibodies. However, since Protein A has high affinity for antibodies, harsh conditions such as low pH are often required to elute monoclonal antibodies from Protein A affinity columns. By 3M Purification Inc

Turning Data Into Information
As biopharmaceutical manufacturing has evolved from small-scale lab production in small flasks to massive commercial production in deep-tank bioreactors, an avalanche of production data has evolved to support it. From individual unit operation skids to distributed control systems and enterprise resource planning tools, biomanufacturing today is buried by the sheer quantity of data coming in from the manufacturing floor.
