Affigenix Biosolutions
Monitor Trypsin
Trypsin is widely used in various biological processes such
as Insulin manufacturing to cleave peptide linkers from
pro-drug C peptide removal from Proinsulin and activation
of vaccine viruses. Residual trypsin analysis is used during
downstream processing.
Affigenix has developed anti-trypsin antibodies and
immunoassay which will enable drug companies to monitor
the clearance of trypsin used in the downstream processing
of Biologics and Biosimilars. Received BIG funding.
Alfa Corpuscles
Safety Syringe
Multiple, avoidable and unsafe injection practices can lead
to large scale transmission of blood-borne viruses among
patients, health-care providers and the community at large.
Alfa Corpuscles has developed a low cost indigenous single
use safety syringe with passive spring actuated needle stick
injury and reuse prevention mechanism. Received SBIRI
funding.
