#Biologics
In biotechnology, biologics are therapeutic products made from living cells or organisms. Unlike chemically synthesized drugs, biologics are usually large, complex molecules such as proteins, cells, or genetic material.
Biologics Manufacturing Processing Steps
August 21, 2023 • By Mike Barlow, Paul Van Buskirk
Typical biologics manufacturing involves culturing cells in bioreactors (upstream processing) to produce the target protein, followed by harvesting to separate cells from the product-containing broth. The product is then purified through downstream processing methods like filtration and chromatography. Finally, it's formulated with stabilizers, filled into sterile containers, and undergoes quality testing before release.
