Which Are Better? Biologics or Small Molecule Drugs?

So to decide which is the best option in medicine and biopharma between biologics or small molecule drugs, we have to consider many factors. But let´s start from the beginning.  What Is a Small Molecule Drug?  Small molecule drugs are typically derived from natural compounds produced by plants, fungi and bacteria or are designed to imitate them. These drugs use biochemical processes to prevent or treat diseases. They are highly effective as allosteric modulators and enzyme inhibitors, and are...

Biologics CDMO: Why You Need One

The rapidly growing market for biologics has made contract biologics development and production corporations (CDMO) more essential. The complexity inherent in the development of biologics and their mass production for sale makes it impossible for biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies to perform the process in-house. What Is a Biologics CDMO Company?  A contract biologics development and manufacturing company (CDMO) provides medical biologics development and manufacturing services for p...

Why is Pichia Pastoris a good alternative for the production of recombinant proteins?

Pichia pastoris is a methylotrophic yeast belonging to the class Ascomycetes. Found in the 1960s, its main characteristic is to use methanol as a carbon and energy source. After years of study, P. pastoris has become a model organism for genetic study, being important in the field of biological and biotechnological research. Pichia pastoris is a yeast currently widely used as an expression system for the production of recombinant proteins, both for basic research and industrial purposes,...

What is the best known living being in the scientific field?

The best known organism in science is certainly a bacterium that lives in the human intestine and in 53Biologics we are experts in this bacteria. Invisible to the naked eye, Escherichia coli is largely responsible for the knowledge of some of the fundamentals of modern biology that have been recognized by several Nobel prizes.  These are the processes of bacterial genetic recombination, RNA transcription, DNA replication and gene regulation. In addition, in recent decades this bacterium has...

Vaccines need a supply chain

The long-awaited immunization vaccines for SARS-CoV2 have arrived, and for us all to get back to “normal” again, rapid application and sustained large-scale production are required. On them depends to a large extent to achieve recovery and reduce the economic and human impact that Covid-19 is causing. Generally, vaccines work by exposing to the immune system a virus or part of it, which has been previously weakened or attenuated. When the vaccinated immune system subsequently encounters...
