Launch of high-quality (pre-clinical) enzymes suitable for pre-clinical and process development in mRNA vaccine and therapeutics

September 11, 2023

Saint-Germain-en-Laye, France – September 12, 2023 – Life Science Newswire - Takara Bio Europe (TBE) announced today the launch of new High Quality (HQ) grade mRNA production enzymes “T7 RNA polymerase, HQ” and "Pyrophosphatase (inorganic), HQ" suitable for pre-clinical and process development in mRNA vaccine and therapeutic manufacturing.

 

HQ grade enzymes have features more similar to GMP grade quality (e.g. the same set of quality tests as GMP grade, see details below) than RUO grade enzymes, facilitating a smooth transition to GMP-grade manufacturing. Additionally, the high volume format (1 mL/tube) offers convenience for scaling up processes.

 

We are expanding our lineup of HQ enzymes to support pre-clinical and process development stages in mRNA production, including another HQ grade product "Recombinant RNase Inhibitor, HQ", set to be launched soon. We also plan to sequentially provide GMP grade enzymes suitable for active pharmaceutical ingredients for manufacturing mRNA vaccines and therapeutic drugs.
