Biopharmaceuticals consist mainly of biologically active proteins generated through recombinant bacterial and mammalian cell cultures. The manufacturing processes for these drugs commonly involve microbial and mammalian cell fermentation, tangential flow filtration, centrifugation, and various chromatographic separation techniques. Development of these production methods incorporates microbiology fundamentals, fermentation technology, reaction kinetics, separation science, and statistical process control to establish reliable, consistent manufacturing processes that comply with GMP (good manufacturing practice) standards.
