[ 1 ] - Validation of a Simple and Rapid Method for Assessment of Intracellular Bacterial Asparaginase

L-Asparaginase has remarkable properties which make it useful in dual pharmaceutical and food industries.In this study, simple and advantageous method has been validated for rapid and precise determination of intracellular L-Asparaginasein bacterial species. A suspension of bacterial cells was used instead ofcell extract and incubated by substrate (asparagine) after simple wash and centrifugati...

[ 2 ] - The Epigenetic Regulation of Blinatumomab Gene Expression: Tumor Cell-dependent T cell Response against Lymphoma Cells and Cytotoxic Activity

Conventional treatment for cancer such as surgical resection and chemotherapy can cause damage in cases with advanced cancers. Moreover, the identification of tumor-specific targets has great importance in T-cell therapies. For decades, T cell activity has been stimulated to improve anti-tumor activity. Bispecific antibodies have attracted strong interest from pharmaceutical companies, for thei...

[ 3 ] - Determination of Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of Hygromycin B in CHO cells

Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells are considered as the most commonly used host for industrial manufacturing of therapeutic proteins. The aim of this study was to evaluate the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of hygromycin B in both CHO-DG44 and CHO-S cells since hygromycin B resistance cassette can be used for future selection of gene expression in CHO cells. The minimum inhibitory conce...
