Setting a New Standard in Mammalian Cell Line Engineering and CGMP Manufacturing

Catalent’s proprietary GPex® (Gene Product Expression) technology enables genetic engineering of highly stable, high-yielding mammalian cell lines with unmatched speed and efficiency. It has been used around the world to produce material for clinical trials and offers many important benefits including:

Expanding Capacity to Support Worldwide Demand: Catalent plans to more than double our bioreactor capacity by the end of 2009 to support increased production for clinical trials across Asia, Australia, Europe and the United States.

Custom Bioassay Development and Management: Catalent’s bioassay scientists are recognized industry experts with extensive regulatory expertise (including the recent revision of USP 111). With unparalleled clinical proficiency and advanced technological resources, we can custom-design an optimized bioassay for every type of biologic product — and expedite the validation.
