Optimizing Recombinant Microbial Fermentation Processes: An Integrated Approachby Karl Bayer, Monika Cserjan-Puschmann, Reingard Grabherr, Gerald Striedner, and Franz Clementschitsch, Institute of Applied Microbiology, Vienna, Austria A new strategy for controlling recombinant gene expression improves efficiency, maximizes host vector exploitation, reduces costs, improves product consistency, and accelerates product development. Continuous feeds of limited amounts of inducer proportional to biomass growth grant optimal control over the ratio between gene expression and host cell metabolism, providing stable, prolonged recombinant protein production.

Knowledge Management: The Four Pillars of Successby April Davis, Inforonics, Inc. Increasing workplace efficiency, saving time, reducing costs, and retaining, exchanging, and reusing knowledge are a few of the reasons companies introduce knowledge management systems. But, if the four pillars of success ? content, process, culture, and technology ? are ignored, the tools may be shoved to the back of the laboratory closet.

Facilitating Client Audits: The Contract Laboratory Perspectiveby Gary Vinson, and Barbara Carter-Hamm, Magellan Pharmaceutical Development Pharmaceutical companies rely on outsourcing organizations that anticipate and prepare for client audits. Such contractor companies become collaborative partners. A technically proficient contract organization understands client needs, knows the regulatory environment in which drug development takes place, and sees a client audit as a professional opportunity to show its expertise.

Retrovirus and Parvovirus Clearance from an Affinity Column Product Using Adsorptive Depth Filtrationby Barbara Tipton, Jeri Ann Boose, Joanne Beck, Thomas O'Brien, and William Larsen, CUNO Incorporated Two types of depth filters are studied for their ability to rid protein solutions of retroviruses and parvoviruses. Such filters are relatively economical and easy to use, so as secondary virus-removing devices, they are beneficial for downstream processing of mammalian cell cultures. Results indicate that depth filters are more effective on retroviruses than parvoviruses.

Throughput Analysis and Debottlenecking of Biomanufacturing Facilities ? A Job for Process Simulatorsby Demetri Petrides, Alexandros Koulouris, and Charles Siletti, Intelligen, Inc. Bottlenecks are everywhere, from the freeway overpass during the morning commute to the long lines at the supermarket. But bottlenecks in a manufacturing process are bad for business. Computer models can help you eliminate those conditions or situations that retard your progress. Whether the goal is strategic planning, evaluating alternatives, purchasing equipment, appraising a facility, or optimizing production processes, simulation tools can improve your analysis.

You Have Failed . . . A Case Study in Warning Letter Remediationby Joseph Noferi, Edward R. Arling, Ralph L. Dillon, and Mikael Blomqvist, Pharmacia An FDA Warning Letter can be a business disaster. This case study tracks a company from receipt of an FD 483 ? that did not find contamination, but only the potential for contamination ? to 18 months later when the facility received a clean bill of health. What it did to get there ? and what it learned ? may keep your site from losing its operating freedom.
