• Quantitation Of Retrovirus-Like Particles (RVLPs) In CHO Derived Products

  Review key methods which are applied to ensure safety of such recombinant proteins, with a focus on alternate and superior methods to the standard transmission electron microscopy (TEM) method.

• Regulatory Considerations For Alternative Microbial Methods

  This paper discusses the regulatory expectations for incorporation of alternative methods with a focus on comparability and strategies for easier substitution of current methods.

• Designing Successful Viral Clearance Studies

  A review of studies which involve scaling down individual process steps, and for each step, spiking virus into the specific process intermediate, performing the process step and measuring the remaining virus.

• Blazar® Platform: Rodent Virus Panel From The BioReliance® Portfolio

  Did you know about the alternative rapid method for in vivo MAP/HAP/RAP testing? Download our tech note Blazar® Platform: Rodent Virus Panel From The BioReliance® Portfolio to learn more about our novel degenerate PCR assay designed for the detection of a broad range of adventitious agents.

• Accelerate CHO Cell Characterization With The Blazar® Rodent Panel

  The Blazar Rodent Panel allows biopharma to move away from traditional in vivo antibody production assays when characterizing cell banks of rodent origin used in the production of biologicals.

• Blazar Platform: Rodent Virus Panel

  By amplifying multiple targets within a conserved region of the viral family genome, Blazar detects a much broader range of adventitious viruses as compared to traditional polymerase chain reaction methods.

• Meeting Stability Testing Expectations In A Complex Biopharma Landscape

  What was once a check-the-box procedure in standard stability testing now requires a deeper understanding of the molecule, its behavior, and what effect it has on the patient.

• Not Everyone Loves Surprises: Know Your ADC’s CQAs

  Combatting the challenges of developing and manufacturing antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) requires robust product characterization throughout all phases of development.

• Cell Based Potency Assay In Functional Characterization Of mAbs

  Because characterization and comparison of originator and biosimilar candidate mAbs is challenging due to their complex and variable structures, a range of analytical techniques should be employed.

• Early Product Characterization De-Risks Biologics Development
