Optimizing HEK293 cell cultures for gene therapy applications: the role of incubator flexibility

Gene therapy is a promising approach for treating various genetic disorders and diseases. A critical component of gene therapy is the production of viral vectors, which serve as delivery vehicles for therapeutic genes. Human Embryonic Kidney 293 (HEK293) cells have become a widely used platform for viral vector production due to their efficiency in transfection and ability to support viral replication. However, optimizing HEK293 cell cultures for large-scale production of viral vectors remains a challenge in making gene therapies more accessible and cost-effective.

Biotech company uses microbial fermentation process in carbon recycling technology

Zara Summers, Chief Science Officer at LanzaTech, a Biotech Company, vividly articulates the company goal to reduce fossil fuel consumption and instead, recycle carbon, that is already above ground to create necessities: "We want it so every child in the world can pick up a crayon and color the sky and have that crayon that they pick be blue. Right? And today that is not the reality for every kid around the world."

Enhancing plasmid DNA (pDNA) production: Innovations in process, manufacturing, and purification techniques

A plasmid DNA production process was performed comparing conventional Erlenmeyer flasks with LB medium and the Thomson’s Ultra Yield® system. E. coli cells were cultivated in both systems in the INFORS HT Multitron incubator shaker, bacterial growth was monitored, and the plasmids were purified at the end of cultivation. Subsequently, the quality of the isolated plasmids was analyzed by HPLC. The combination of the Ultra Yield® flasks with the enriched Plasmid+® medium and the AirOtop® enhanced seal led to higher cell densities and a 21-fold higher amount of plasmid than in Erlenmeyer shake flasks with LB medium.
