Small, smaller, smallest: Miniaturization of chromatographic process development

Biopharmaceuticals are becoming increasingly important in modern healthcare. Monoclonal antibodies (mAb) are one of the most widely used therapeutic proteins and are important for the treatment of cancer and autoimmune diseases, among others. After cell culture there are still large amounts of other impurities (e.g. host cell proteins) in...

Automation and miniaturization: Enabling tools for fast, high-throughput process development in integrated continuous biomanufacturing

Process development in the biotech industry leads to investments around hundred of millions of dollars. It is important to mitigate costs without neglecting the quality of process development. Biopharmaceutical process development is important for companies to develop new processes and be first to market, improve a pre-established process, or...
