چکیده

background: existence of bacterial host cell dna contamination in biopharmaceutical products is a potential risk factor for patients receiving these drugs. hence, the quantity of contamination must be controlled under the regulatory standards. although different methods such as hybridization assays have been employed to determine dna impurities, these methods are labor, intensive and rather expensive. in this study, a rapid real-time pcr test was served as a method of choice to quantify the e. coli host cell dna contamination in widely used recombinant streptokinase (rsk), and alpha interferon (ifn-α) preparations. methods: a specific primer pair was designed to amplify a sequence inside the e. coli 16s rrna gene. serial dilutions of dna extracted from e. coli host cells along with dna extracted from active pharmaceutical ingredients of rsk, and ifn-α samples were subjected to an optimized real-time pcr assay based on sybr green chemistry. results: the test enabled us to detect a small quantity of genomic dna contamination as low as 0.0002 picograms, in recombinant protein-based drugs. for the first time, this study showed that dna contamination in rsk and ifn-α preparation manufactured in pasteur institute of iran is much lower than the safety limit suggested by the us fda. conclusion: real-time pcr is a reliable test for rapid detection of host cell dna contamination, which is a major impurity of therapeutic recombinant protein to keep manufacturers’ minds on refining drugs, and provides consumers with safer biopharmaceuticals.

Validation of a genus-specific gene; TPS, used as internal control in quantitative Real Time PCR of transgenic cotton

Identification of genes with invariant levels of gene expression is a prerequisite for validating transcriptomic changes accompanying development. Ideally expression of these genes should be independent of the morphogenetic process or environmental condition.We report here the validation of internal control gene i.e.TPS (trehalose 6-phosphate-synthase) in cotton (Gossypium spp), using TaqMan sy...

Kinetics quality assessment for relative quantification by real-time PCR.

For proper relative quantification by real-time PCR, compared samples should have similar PCR efficiencies. To test this prerequisite, we developed two quality tests: (i) adjustment of a test for kinetic outlier detection (KOD) to relative quantification; and (ii) comparison of the efficiency variance of test samples with the efficiency variance of samples with highly reproducible quantificatio...
