Quality by design (QbD) is a global regulatory initiative with the goal of enhancing pharmaceutical development through the proactive design of pharmaceutical manufacturing process and controls to consistently deliver the intended performance of the product. The principles of pharmaceutical development relevant to QbD are described in the ICH guidance documents (ICHQ8-11). An integrated set of risk assessments and their related elements developed at Roche/Genentech were designed to provide an overview of product and process knowledge for the production of a recombinant monoclonal antibody (MAb). This chapter describes the tools used for the characterization and validation of MAb manufacturing process under the QbD paradigm. This comprises risk assessments for the identification of potential Critical Process Parameters (pCPPs), statistically designed experimental studies as well as studies assessing the linkage of the unit operations. Outcome of the studies is the classification of process parameters according to their criticality and the definition of appropriate acceptable ranges of operation. The process and product knowledge gained in these studies can lead to the approval of a Design Space. Additionally, the information gained in these studies are used to define the 'impact' which the manufacturing process can have on the variability of the CQAs, which is used to define the testing and monitoring strategy.

A robust analytical method was developed for the determination of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in e-cigarette refill liquids using solid-phase extraction (SPE) with weak anion-exchange sorbent, followed by detection with high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS). The design of experiment approach was employed to optimize sample preparation, leading to the validation of the method with limits of detection for PFAS ranging from 0.24 to 1.

An α-l-Rhamnosidase gene with an open reading frame of 3192 bp encoding a 1036-amino acid protein (EhRha) was cloned from Emiliania huxleyi for flavonoid hydrolysis on the cell surface of Pichia pastoris (P. pastoris) strain GS115 by fusing with the anchor protein (AGα1) from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry assays revealed that EhRha was successfully displayed on the cell surface of P.

Cell-free synthetic biology aims at the targeted replication, design, and modification of life processes in open systems by breaking free of constraints such as cell membrane barriers and living cell growth. The beginnings of this systematized technology, which took place in the last century, were used to explore the secrets of life. Currently, with its easy integration with other technologies or disciplines, cell-free synthetic biology is developing into a powerful and effective means of understanding, exploiting, and extending the structure and function of natural living systems.

Small-molecule GLP1RAs promise oral bioavailability and scalable manufacturing, but their selective binding to human versus rodent receptors has limited mechanistic studies. The neural circuits through which these emerging therapeutics modulate feeding behavior remain undefined, particularly in comparison to established peptide-based GLP1RAs.

While advances in cell-free biocatalysis are improving nsAA synthesis cost and sustainability, such processes remain reliant on multi-step processes of product isolation followed by supplementation to engineered cells. Here, we report the design of a modular and genetically encoded system that combines the steps of biosynthesis of diverse phenylalanine derivatives, which are the most frequently used family of nsAAs for genetic code expansion, and their site-specific incorporation within target proteins using a single engineered bacterial host.
