Bioconjugates
Antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) are a rapidly growing field of interest in biopharmaceutics. In comparison to conventional chemotherapy treatments, ADCs have the potential to destroy cancerous cells without damaging healthy cells in the process. In this article we will give you an introduction to this important and rapidly growing field.

The safe handling of ADCs or other HPAPIs is a complex and elaborate process that requires specialized facilities and a safe, sterile environment. The filling/aliquoting step in particular calls for great care and specific equipment to ensure sterility and rule out any potential cross-contamination as well as potential harm to handling staff.

Bioconjugates
The manufacturing of bioconjugates is a complex process that involves linking a drug payload with a targeting moiety using a linker. The process is highly specific and requires careful optimization to ensure that the bioconjugate is effective and safe for use in patients. Single-use technology has revolutionized the manufacturing of bioconjugates by offering a range of benefits over traditional stainless-steel manufacturing. Therefore, this article will pay special attention to this subject.

End-to-end Solution
The entire biopharma industry depends on intact supply chain in order to provide patients with the drug products they need. However, there are several factors that can put the integrity of supply chain at risk. In this article, we will discuss seven of them and explore what can be done to circumvent them.
