Abstract
The growing demands for existing biologics production are reflected in biopharmaceutical sales figures: The top 15 products in 2004 posted revenues of $38 billion. Although biologics manufacturing now is focused chiefly on a small number of blockbuster products, the future challenges will involve the ability to gear up for the production of a larger variety of products with lower sales volumes. D&MD's Bioprocesses of Biopharmaceuticals: The Obligatory Role of Post Translational Modifications to Create Functional Bioactive Molecules looks at protein drug manufacturing, starting with choice of methods and scale-up processes, highlighting important post translational modifications such as glycosylation.
