Eliminating Residual Impurities Starts with a Strategic Plan
A risk-based approach to identifying potential residual impurities is important for understanding any risks to the product quality and potentially the patient. It also allows the development of an opt…

Impurity Testing of Biologic Drug Products
Some impurities (especially host cell proteins) may add an immune-stimulating or adjuvant behavior to the therapeutic, causing the patient to generate antibodies or cell-mediated immunity against the …

Managing Residual Impurities During Downstream Processing
Elemental impurities can be present as well. There is, however, no set of standard assays for the determination of contaminants such as HCPs during manufacturing because each biopharmaceutical process…

Capture of Bispecific Antibodies and Removal of Product-Related Impurities
Many of these variants, especially asymmetric bispecific antibodies, are prone to aggregation or to forming product-related impurities such as homodimers and half antibodies during cell culture. The s…

Evolution of the Monoclonal Antibody Purification Platform
Typical steps include:
• Protein A chromatography for capture of the product and removal of host cell-related impurities (host cell proteins and DNA). Though extremely efficient and effective,…

What’s in your media? How costly is variability of cell culture media to your manufacturing process?
However, if there are several different components then there is an additive effect for impurities that are present. We also noticed that there are some components that trend and carry more materials.…
