Plant-Based Biologics: Emerging Alternative Platform for Biologics Production
Plants have emerged as a viable alternative platform for the production of biologics. Many biopharmaceutical drugs today including monoclonal antibodies, vaccines and clotting factors have traditionally been produced in mammalian cell culture systems or recombinant microorganisms like E.coli. However, plant-based expression systems offer several advantages over these traditional platforms for production of certain biologics. Advantages…
