Host Protein Residue Detection Process
Quantification of host cell protein (HCP) residues is a standard quality control procedure in biopharmaceutical manufacturing processes. Its objective is to confirm that the residual levels of host cell proteins generated during production meet applicable regulatory requirements and product quality standards. The following provides an overview of a standard methodology for the detection of HCP residues:
Sample Preparation
Select a suitable quantity of the biological product sample and treat it to eliminate potential interferences in measurement. Treatment methods may include protein degradation and concentration.
Antibody Preparation
The selection of antibodies with high affinity and specificity is crucial for host protein detection. Antibodies against host proteins can be prepared using in vivo immunization techniques in animals such as rabbits or mice.
Kit Preparation
Antibodies and necessary reagents, including substrates and enzyme labels, are used to prepare diagnostic kits. These kits typically encompass enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA).
Detection Steps
1. Introduce samples into the pre-prepared kit.
2. Perform detection using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) methods.
3. Measure and document the results of the detection.
Analysis and Reporting
Interpret and analyze the detection results, followed by the preparation of a comprehensive report.
