Conceptual Development Of Industrial Biotechnology For Commercial Production Of Vaccines And Biopharmaceuticals

Conceptual Development of Industrial Biotechnology for Commercial Production of Biopharmaceuticals and Vaccines provides insights on how to bring sustainability into biologic drug production. The cumulative facts and figures within in the book are helpful to promoters in monitoring value chain transfer process of super quality biologics for better return in profits. In addition, this is a useful reference for students, researchers and scientists in biotechnology, pharmaceutical science, medical sciences, and the R&D division of biotechnology-based industries. Conceptual development of biotechnology has taken new avenues with the integration of medical sciences, physical science, and engineering, hence this is a timely source. The current global market for vaccines, especially COVID-19, is tremendous. Bivalent oral polio vaccine, diphtheria, tetanus-containing, and measles-containing vaccines have a high demand internationally and recombinant DNA technology and protein engineering are helpful in the production of quality bio-products. Informs how biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries act as central pillars for the stable production of value-added biological drugs and vaccines from genetically engineered suitable vectors like microbe or cell lines from animals, mammals or plants Highlights various traditional and modern techniques used for improvising the quality of suitable vectors to produce biologic drugs and vaccines under GMP manufacturing facilities Provides updated information on the latest microchip-based bioreactors, disposable bag bioreactors, and animal systems as bioreactors to produce biologic drugs like Smart Biomolecules (next generation therapeutics), Bio-similar drugs, Bio-betters, and antibody-drug conjugates Explains how the closed bioreactors with proper mechanical amendments are used for vaccine production

This book reviews the assessment of industrial biotechnology products and processes from a sustainable perspective. Industrial Biotechnology is a comparably young field which comes along with high expectations with regard to sustainability issues. These stem from the promise of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and replacing fossil resources in the near or later future and using green technology, i.e. more environmentally friendly technologies. The intended economic, ecological and social benefits, however, need to be proven, resulting in a variety of challenges, both from a methodological and application point of view. In this book, specific assessment and application topics of industrial biotechnology are addressed, highlighting challenges and solutions for both developers and users of assessment methods. In twelve chapters, experts in their particular fields define the scope, characterize industrial biotechnology and show in their contributions the state of the art, challenges and prospects of assessing industrial biotechnology products and processes. The chapter 'Societal and Ethical Aspects of Industrial Biotechnology' of this book is available open access under a CC BY 4.0 license at link.springer.com

On July 30-31, 2018, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine held a workshop titled Continuous Manufacturing for the Modernization of Pharmaceutical Production. This workshop discussed the business and regulatory concerns associated with adopting continuous manufacturing techniques to produce biologics such as enzymes, monoclonal antibodies, and vaccines. The participants also discussed specific challenges for integration across the manufacturing system, including upstream and downstream processes, analytical techniques, and drug product development. The workshop addressed these challenges broadly across the biologics domain but focused particularly on drug categories of greatest FDA and industrial interest such as monoclonal antibodies and vaccines. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from the workshop.

The latest volume in the Advanced Biotechnology series provides an overview of the main product classes and platform chemicals produced by biotechnological processes today, with applications in the food, healthcare and fine chemical industries. Alongside the production of drugs and flavors as well as amino acids, bio-based monomers and polymers and biofuels, basic insights are also given as to the biotechnological processes yielding such products and how large-scale production may be enabled and improved. Of interest to biotechnologists, bio and chemical engineers, as well as those working in the biotechnological, chemical, and food industries.
