DOWNSTREAM PROCESSING FEATURED ARTICLES
ZoBio and CellCentric are pleased to announce that the companies are working together to discover lead compounds against CellCentric’s portfolio of epigenetic therapeutic drug targets. ZoBio will use its proprietary TINS technology to screen its fragment library against targets nominated by CellCentric. Hit to lead and lead optimisation activities will be further supported by ZoBio’s biophysical and medicinal chemistry research services.

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

Materials Of Construction For Biopharmaceutical Water Systems
Stainless steels are uniquely qualified for bioprocessing applications not only because of their long service life, availability, and fabricability, but also because they are non-corroding, non-contaminant, can be polished to very smooth finishes, are strong and rigid, can withstand heat and chemical sterilization treatments, and are easily welded.

Improving DNA Removal from Bioprocess Purification Processes
Many new biological drug products produced using recombinant DNA technology, such as monoclonal antibodies, are produced in cell culture. Because therapeutic proteins such as monoclonal antibodies are produced in cell culture, impurities can result from the host cells, or cell substrates. By 3M Purification Inc.
