In Focus: Raw materials

As cell therapies progress from the lab to the clinic, the raw material requirements change. In the clinical and commercial stages they need to meet higher safety and quality conditions to ensure patient safety and regulatory compliance. So how do you select the right raw materials for the different stages of your process? 

In this In Focus feature, we explore this question and investigate methods to reliably test raw materials, such as cytokines, from different suppliers. We’ll also share top tips from experts at Sartorius CellGenix (Freiburg, Germany) on how to make your transition into GMP manufacturing as smooth as possible.
