This book covers all aspects of the new technologies needed to turn
animal cells into an acceptable and cost-effective tool for drug
production. This includes modifying them genetically so that they
produce the right product in high yield, getting them to grow
reproducibly on an industrial scale, and extracting the required
product from them. It also covers biological safety issues, and the
verification of the chemical and biological nature of the protein
drug produced. The work covers the latest developments in all of
these areas and how they all need to be integrated for the design
of an effective biotechnological production process.
