Modernizing cell culture processes for the next wave of genomic medicine

Pharmaceutical Technology

“For each production process, you have to generate the plasmids in huge quantities with GMP quality and then do a transient transfection, meaning you mix them with a transfection reagent and add that to the cells in a very controlled way,” explains Faust. For example, researchers have developed a two-plasmid cotransfection system.

How Can Rapid mRNA Quantification Enhance Multivalent Vaccine Development?

XTalks

While RT-PCR methods can handle some level of multiplexing, they do require specialized, contamination-free environments. The result was a prepackaged, off-the-shelf reagent kit that provided reliable quantification for a wide variety of influenza mRNA vaccine constructs.
