Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/87mqj3/emerging_trends)
has announced the addition of the "Emerging
Trends in Cell Banking (Technical Insights) " report to their
offering.
The execution of different test methods aiming to evaluate the stability
and potency of biopharmaceutical products, as well as, their
pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) profiles, their characterization
and comparison with other drugs, or the detection of antidrug antibodies
(ADAs) or neutralizing antibodies (NAB), represent critical stages in
drug discovery and development. On that note, cells and cell-based
reagents constitute the foundations of most operational challenges.
Indeed, cultured cells are frequently used to generate monoclonal
antibodies (MAbs), enzymes, or substrates to be then utilized in other
types of tests, such as ligand binding and enzymatic assays, thereby
requiring distinct characterization and control measures to guarantee
functional reliability over time.
The extreme sensitivity of cellular components to different chemical and
physical elements and the possibility of alterations in the proteome
expression profiles hold significant importance in assessing
biopharmaceutical products. Therefore, the need for homogeneous, stable
cell banks capable of safeguarding starting cellular material is
substantial to perform reliable cell-based assays. Master and working
cell banks (MCBs and WCBs) are established with the aim to provide a
continuous source of viable cells that allow to generate accurate
results for specific test methods.
This research service brings out the emerging trends in MCBs and WCBs
on a global scale, through a detailed description of:
-
The technology capability and value chain; analysis of global
technology trends.
-
An impact analysis of major drivers, restraints, and challenges
influencing the growth of cell banks by timeframes.
-
An assessment of technology adoption and development, by region,
demand side analysis, and recommendations for
technology/product/services developers.
-
An evaluation of scenario modelling and emerging opportunities in MCBs
and WCBs, technology management strategies and technology application
roadmap.
-
A list of key patents of noteworthy innovations of global participants
and a detailed list of key contacts in the field.
