by Gail Sofer, BioReliance With West Nile virus in the news, viral inactivation is under public scrutiny. Yet, the culture media, the therapeutic product, and the potential viral contaminants can all affect the inactivation method chosen during production. Viral inactivation techniques ? those tried or used in manufacturing or in final biopharmaceuticals, vaccines, and media products ? have been gathered from recent scientific literature and organized in this article series as an addition to your process development toolbox.

by Tim N. Warner and Sam Nuchumson, Pall Life Sciences If the hidden expenses associated with laboratory purchases ? labor, cleaning, buffers, validation, time delays ? are identified, reduced processing costs, higher throughput, and accelerated time-to-market are possible. This comparison between resin and membrane chromatography helps shed light on some hidden costs.

by S. Alison Arnold, Linda M. Harvey, and Brian McNeil, Strathclyde Fermentation Centre (Scotland), and Jeffrey W. Hall, FOSS NIRSystems Timely process information is required to make effective fermentation decisions, but those data are rarely available. NIR spectroscopy can allow you ? by incorporating rapid, nondestructive, multiconstituent analyses of fermentation broth directly into fermentation control strategies ? to make those decisions. This article will help you make that improvement by outlining the analysis strategies.
