ISBioTech Annual Meeting Update
We’ve added a Baculovirus Track to the ISBioTech Annual Meeting Program in April 2011. While there is tremendous interest in our program tracks on viral, cellular, and protein products, we’ve received a flood of emails from ISBioTech members and other industry leaders who have asked us to cover products derived with baculovirus and insect cell technology. So we’re working with a number of technology experts to recruit the most relevant presentations and posters, and we invite you to submit an abstract to content@isbiotech.org.

In addition, we’ve expanded our Cellular Products Track to cover the most critical issues associated with cells, cell lines, and tissues used in bioprocessing.  In particular, our focus will be on cell line development, component traceability, cell banking, cryopreservation, stability, and characterization. Plus we’ll branch out into cellular product applications such as cancer vaccines and tissue regeneration.

The Bio-Process Systems Alliance (BPSA) has released its 2010 technical guide: "Recommendations for Testing and Evaluation of Extractables from Single-Use Process Equipment." The 22-page color guide is intended as a “best practices” document, to help suppliers and users of disposable single-use components and systems develop appropriate fluid-specific extractables data that may have applicability in risk-based decisions in bioprocess component selections, process validation, and regulatory filings. «Click Here» to order.

The ModPro synthetic protein binder technology is a unique platform that offers the highest affinity and specificity in combination with extreme robustness and chemical versatility for the most demanding applications in diagnostics, drug development, protein separation and purification. No licensing needed from any third party. ModPro combines small organic molecules, or “hot spot” mimics with polypeptides from a designed set to form powerful binders for proteins. The concept is unprecedented and analogous with protein surfaces involved in protein-protein interactions. «Click here» for additional details or email lars-johan.larsson@engavility.com today.
