Metabolite Analysis for Biopharmaceutical Processes
Metabolites are small intermediary molecules formed in biochemical pathways and are central to cell signalling, regulation of cellular functions and energy production. In biopharmaceutical manufacturing, targeted metabolite analysis provides key insights into cell culture conditions, such as nutrient status, oxygen supply and overall metabolic state, enabling you to improve cell growth, productivity and product quality.
Beyond real-time assessment of cell growth and culture performance, metabolite profiling can also reveal process-related impurities, including microbiological contaminants and unwanted by-products, making it a powerful tool for process monitoring, troubleshooting and quality control.
At Biofidus, we offer standardized chromatographic assays for a broad range of metabolites, including amino acids, organic acids, polyamines, surfactants, sugars, fatty acids, vitamins, nucleotides, secondary messengers and process-related impurities.
In line with your needs, we adapt and, if required, qualify our platform methods to address your specific process, matrix and analytical questions.
