Hayashibara ― A world leading supplier of pharmaceutical grade Trehalose
Founded as a starch syrup manufacturer in 1883, Hayashibara has grown into a company with strong research and development expertise, engaging in original and creative research. Utilizing our technological background in biotechnology and in-depth knowledge of saccharide production, Hayashibara became the first company in the world to succeed in the mass production of “Trehalose”, a unique disaccharide recognized as a beneficial excipient for the biopharmaceutical industry. In addition to trehalose, Hayashibara has been supplying for many years other high purity ingredients to the pharmaceutical industry worldwide.
TREHALOSE SG – For Culture Media Use
What is TREHALOSE SG?
- TREHALOSE SG is a dihydrous, crystalline and non-reducing disaccharide consisting of two glucose molecules linked by an α,α-1,1 bond.
- TREHALOSE SG is white crystalline powder.
- TREHALOSE SG is very soluble in water and very heat stable.
- TREHALOSE SG is an injectable grade of pharmaceuticals and is monographed as being low endotoxin.
Evaluation of the suppression of protein aggregation in CHO cell culture
Materials & Methods (1)
- Protein solution of a bispecific antibody (bispecific
single-chained diabody with Fc, scDb-Fc, 0.8 mg/mL) was prepared with or without addition of trehalose (200 mM) in culture medium. - Circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy of the scDb-Fc protein contained in the supernatant was measured.
Materials & Methods (2)
- The scDb-Fc (0.8 mg/mL) solution prepared in the same manner as described in M & M (1) was heat-treated at 60℃ for 5 minutes.
- The precipitate was removed by centrifugation.
- The soluble fraction of scDb-Fc protein in the supernatant was measured.
Conclusion
- It was possible to culture the antibody-producing CHO cell line in the presence of TREHALOSE SG.
- TREHALOSE SG can suppress antibody aggregation, especially the formation of high-order aggregates, during the cell culture process.
- Use of TREHALOSE SG appears to increase efficiency of functional antibody production.
