NEWS: We are thrilled to announce significant timeline and productivity enhancements to our mammalian cell line development platform, AbZelectPRO™. Now, biopharma customers can reach their research cell bank (RCB) in just 10 weeks, producing up to 8 g/L of high-performing titers before process development—a timeline reduction of over 30%.   The platform combines ProteoNic’s 2G UNic® vector technology with our host CHO cell line, resulting in a higher frequency of high-producing clones for therapeutic protein and recombinant vaccine production, including difficult-to-express proteins like bispecifics and fusion proteins.   Simon Keen, VP of Cell Line Development at Abzena, stated: “Over the past 10 months, we've been fine-tuning the platform, generating more data from real-world projects, which has allowed us to showcase its full potential and benefits to our customers. We are thrilled that AbZelectPRO™ has consistently demonstrated improved cycle times and productivity, giving our customers more shots on goal in achieving success in the clinic.”   Read the full press release here: https://lnkd.in/ea5eHHEu   #AbZelectPRO #CellLineDevelopment #Biopharma #DrugDevelopment #CDMO #CRO

Contract Pharma's latest CEO Spotlight, features Abzena's CEO, Matthew Stober, sharing his strategic vision for steering Abzena’s future growth, highlighting how broader CDMO industry trends influence his decisions.    As Matthew states, “Today, it is crucial for CDMOs to not only possess strong manufacturing capabilities but to have expertise in analytical development as well.
