mAbs are too complex to synthesize. Instead, cells like CHO are genetically modified to produce the protein like they do any other protein they need to live

The cells are grown in bioreactors, the cells are made to secrete our protein, and we purity it

Generics, called biologics, mimic the process

What are monoclonal antibodies (mAbs)?

Well let’s compare them to something we’re familiar with like ibuprofen 💊

Small molecules like ibuprofen have broad interactions in the body

mAbs are engineered to specifically target disease-related proteins or cells

I’m a monoclonal antibody process development scientist. Let’s start talking about biopharm and biotech! 🧪🥼

I’m here to spark conversations and give insights into the exciting world of biopharmaceuticals and biotechnology.
