In Vitro Potency Studies

Cell-based methods to demonstrate the potency of biopharmaceutical products

The potency of a biopharmaceutical product is key for batch release and for biosimilar comparability assessment.

ViruSure can support you to develop and validate a customized cell-based potency assay to measure the biological activity of your biopharmaceutical product. Potency assays are available for a wide range of products such as antibodies, cytokines, hormones and vaccines.
