Outsource your biotherapeutic protein production to an expert

 Our microbial cGMP production facility specializes in high-yieldreproducible manufacturing of therapeutic proteins using E. coliP. pastoris, and other microbial hosts, adapting from intial preclinical development to full cGMP manufacturing.

Your CDMO for microbial projects

200GMP-compliant microbial fermentation bioreactor/53Biologics

Fast-track your recombinant protein to clinic with a flexible, end-to-end microbial CDMO partner.

At 53Biologics, we specialize in the development and GMP manufacturing of therapeutic proteins using microbial expression systems such as E. coli and P. pastoris. Our microbial platform is optimized for non-glycosylated biologics — including enzymes, antibody fragments, and cytokines — offering a fast, scalable, and cost-effective path from gene to drug product.

With over 15 years of experience and in-house fermentation capabilities up to 2000L, we provide end-to-end solutions tailored to your molecule’s complexity and development stage. From strain development to cGMP fill & finish, our team ensures technical robustness, regulatory compliance, and speed — with no queue times and full project ownership.

GMP-Compliant Services for Clinical-Stage Therapeutic Proteins

Our ISO 7 and ISO 8 cleanrooms are equipped with stainless steel and single-use fermenters at 200L and 2000L scales, enabling phase-appropriate microbial GMP manufacturing for therapeutic proteins.

We specialize in scaling up high-density cultures of E. coli and P. pastoris, maintaining batch-to-batch consistency and process robustness under GMP.

Fermentation parameters are tightly controlled and monitored in real-time, ensuring optimal expression, cell viability, and product quality.

Our downstream operations support clinical-grade purification with high-performance platforms, including high-pressure homogenizers, single-use tangential flow filtration, and single-use chromatography systems.

Our ISO 7/8 cleanroom suites are fully equipped for batch record–controlled DSP activities, aligned with EMA or FDA expectations. We are experienced in the purification of complex therapeutic proteins such as enzymes, cytokines, and antibody fragments.

We provide aseptic filling in Grade A isolators, fully compliant with Annex I. Available container formats include:

  • Vials (2R to 30R)
  • Bottles (100 mL to 20L)
  • Bags (250 mL to 200L)

Ideal for clinical trial material and orphan drug supply, with QA-controlled operations, validated equipment, and GMP-compliant storage from –80°C to room temperature.

Our multidisciplinary team provides CMC-aligned process support, including scale-up, validation batches, and preparation for regulatory submissions.

Our goal is to ensure regulatory alignment and clinical readiness at every stage of your protein manufacturing journey.

From early-stage development to clinical manufacturing, we help bring your therapeutic protein to life — reliably and efficiently. Let’s Talk!
