The study observed that using a modified vacuum filtration system assisted in the filtration of large volumes of bacterial cultures, removing the need for centrifuges.
Nitrogen dioxide (NO2) gas found not to ingress and cause protein degradation when sterilising polymer-based prefilled syringes (P-PFSs), according to study.
EPR highlights the development of a simple, flexible two-dimensional liquid chromatography-native mass spectrometry method for the in-line analysis of biotherapeutics.
A new method of mucosal vaccine delivery that uses albumin to help transport vaccine antigens could lead to better vaccines for HIV and COVID-19.
Targeted protein degradation (TPD) therapy has grown rapidly as a field, with transformational potential. TPD is poised to be successful in delivering marketed products, but limitations are now starting to emerge, including tumour resistance, a lack of mechanisms for oral dosing, and the inability to penetrate tissues such as the…
Features in this in-depth focus highlight the opportunities presented by targeted protein degradation therapeutics, as well as the breakthroughs in developing treatments for sickle cell disease.
Disulphide bonds between cysteines play a critical role in the stability and activity of therapeutic antibodies. Here, Dr Ioannis Papayannopoulos, Principal Scientist at Dragonfly Therapeutics, describes the characterisation of the oxidation state of cysteines and formed disulphides in therapeutic antibody drugs.
