Lab to jab in 100 days: manufacturing flexibility for future rapid responses

Pharmaceutical Technology

Messenger RNA vaccines contain nucleic acids that code for a specific protein, or target antigen, related to a virus or disease. When an mRNA vaccine is administered, a patient’s body produces that protein to prompt a desired immune response. Before COVID-19, Merck held the record for the fastest modern vaccine ever developed.

Recombinant therapeutic proteins. Fusion proteins. They may contain proteins that control the action of other proteins and cellular processes, genes that control production of vital proteins, modified human hormones, or cells that produce substances that suppress or activate components of the immune system.

Are All Excipients Truly Inert? Maybe Not, Suggests New Study

XTalks

These data illustrate that while many excipient molecules are in fact inert, a good number may have previously unappreciated effects on human proteins known to play an important role in health and disease,” Shoichet said. But just how inert are these excipients?

The Biotech Effect

Pharmaceutical Technology

As understanding of biological systems has forged ahead, pharmaceutical companies have made increasing use of biotechnology in discovering and manufacturing new medicines. It was once derided as the stuff of science fiction, but in recent years, biotechnology has emerged as an important growth area in pharmaceuticals.

Transforming Biomanufacturing: Potential of Cell Free Systems

Roots Analysis

Overview of Cell Free Systems Cell-free systems are ­in-vitro platforms which allow occurrence of biochemical reactions in the absence of living cells. These expression systems utilize bio machinery harvested from the lysate of disrupted cells for the manufacturing of a wide array of macromolecular and small molecule products.

Cell Free System market: Current Landscape, Growth Opportunities and Future Market Outlook

Roots Analysis

On the other hand, cell free system / cell free expression system are ­in-vitro platforms that harness the transcription and translation machinery of living cells, in the form of cell lysates, to synthesize various types of biologics, particularly proteins. Interestingly, most of these kits are used for cell-free protein expression.
