Advanced expression options for your evolving needs
Developing drugs that depend on a mammalian or microbial process poses unique challenges. The challenge increases when you need to move to cGMP to scale and commercialize new products. To accelerate production, developers need efficient and regulatory-compliant expression systems that scale quickly and reproducibly to meet future needs. With our portfolio of mammalian and microbial expression platforms and expertise, we can help you develop robust processes to equip you for ultimate commercial success.
Our portfolio includes:
Lonza in Your Lab™ provides flexibility to either take our technologies into your lab under license, or let Lonza do it for you, at any stage in the process.
Lonza technology platforms available to license include the GS Gene Expression System® mammalian platform including GS piggyBac®, the XS Technologies® microbial platform, and HEK293 cells plus patented vector technologies for AAV production.
Proprietary technology and expertise are at the core of our expression platforms.
The gold standard for fast-track protein expression
Developing protein drugs that depend upon a mammalian or microbial process poses unique challenges that increase as you move from development to commercial scale. To accelerate production, developers need established, efficient and regulatory-compliant expression systems that scale quickly and reproducibly to meet future needs. With our portfolio of mammalian and microbial expression platforms and expertise, we can help you develop such robust processes.
