Animal Cell Biotechnology

This book introduces the fundamental principles and practical application of techniques used in the scalable production of proteins and virus-based gene-therapeutic products with animal cell cultures. The book reviews a broad spectrum of subjects relevant to biologics production, including the creation of cell lines, a survey of functional genomics for cell lines and processes, and advances in upstream and downstream process development. It is an essential reference for all those working in the biotechnology field both from an academic and industrial standpoint.
