More than $1 out of every $9 under professional management in the United States is involved in socially responsible investing.
Determining a peptide’s purity is challenging because impurities are often structurally similar to each other and the API and can be present at very low concentrations. New approaches offer a solution.
BioPharm International is about to embark on another new beginning. You'll remember the magazine (along with the primers, supplements and media kit) had a drastic new beginning in February of 2004 when we launched the major redesign. There were other new beginnings in the past two and one-half years, like five new columns (StreetTalk, Operations Excellence, BioPartnerships, Compliance Briefing and Final Word.) You'll even see a sixth column about legal issues in 2006.
Recognize that the drug drought is the "disease" underlying many of pharma's troubling symptoms, and the cure becomes apparent.
Most extractable and leachable (E&L) studies are based on liquid formulations. This article examines options for E&L studies to evaluate leaching from primary packaging into lyophilized drugs.
Formal process and operation improvement activities are being employed in almost every biopharmaceutical manufacturing company, according to a recent survey conducted by Tefen Ltd and Millipore Corporation. The industry-wide survey was conducted to assess current biopharmaceutical operations excellence (OpEx) trends and needs, as well as OpEx perceptions and expectations related to industry suppliers.
Drug developers must understand the complex bioanalytical assays for cell- and gene-therapy drug development programs and ensure that partners have the specialized expertise needed for complex therapeutic classes.

This benchmarking study compares the Advanced Instruments Solentim ICON™ viability assay to the performance of a commercially available cell counter. The results demonstrate lower variation, increased precision, and time savings.
In light of recent FDA guidance on data integrity, the challenges and benefits of using the public cloud to deploy and use data management software are discussed.
A properly designed validation program will detect variation and ensure control based on process risk.
Single-use systems can be a cost savings for CMOs, and these savings can be passed on to clients and, ultimately, to patients.
A novel mathematical approach for fitting concentration-response curves is proposed that offers a more accurate estimation of potency data.
As the global demand for cell culture continues to grow year after year, experts are developing new tools to ensure the environment for growing cells can be improved through continuous monitoring and control.

Download this application note to learn about hazardous drugs basics - listing through storage, engineering controls and training programs, and why you shouldn’t wait, regardless of initial enforcement for your facility.
These new analytical methods can reduce analysis and product development time.
Close collaboration between academic and industrial groups is vital to ensuring glycosylation models are fit for deployment.
Laboratory test methods evaluate cleaning agents and cleaning process design for removing resin residues from the surfaces of non-dedicated chromatography columns systems.
Both innovator and generics companies are using analytics to support comparability arguments.
Ultra performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) is a new category of liquid chromatography that researchers are using to increase resolution, speed, and sensitivity in a variety of applications. These benefits result from packing columns with 1.7 ?m particles and using instruments that are optimized for such columns.
The growing trend of partnerships between small biotech companies and CDMOs makes the need for conducting CMC due diligence increasingly important.
It is critical to evaluate specific considerations, from design to application, for the benefit of downstream bioprocessing and manufacturing.
Increasingly complex monoclonal antibody molecules will require the right “tool box” for scaling up manufacturing.
The growing trend of partnerships between small biotech companies and CDMOs makes the need for conducting CMC due diligence increasingly important.
Today, there is a global adoption of buying and selling used equipment. This article reviews what organizations should look for when considering the purchase of used equipment.
