We understand the importance of accelerating the development of mRNA vaccines and therapeutics, and we are here to support you every step of the way. At Thermo Fisher Scientific, we offer a range of high-performance products and professional support to help you transform your plasmid DNA template and mRNA production processes. Our team of specialists will work with you to develop effective plasmid DNA templates and mRNA production strategies that meet critical process, scale, quality, and regulatory requirements. Our goal is to help you expedite the commercialization of your mRNA programs and bring them to market quickly, safely, and efficiently.
Plasmids serve as the essential building blocks for manufacturing mRNA therapeutics. The plasmid production process involves the fermentation of bacterial cells to produce the plasmid DNA, isolating and purifying the plasmid DNA, characterizing its quality, and quantifying the final product. This high-quality plasmid DNA can then be linearized and used as the template for mRNA synthesis. Our product solutions are designed to scale up the plasmid production from development to commercial phase.
The fermentation process is a key step in producing plasmid DNA involving the growth and replication of bacterial cells harboring the plasmid DNA. It requires careful optimization of culture conditions and induction strategies to achieve high yields of high-quality plasmid DNA.
