Ensuring Quality in Raw Material Enzymes
Raw material enzymes play a pivotal role in the manufacturing of mRNA and gene therapies. We offer large-scale GMP-grade recombinant enzymes with various size fermentation tanks, designed to provide yields tailored to your specific needs. We are committed to producing the highest quality enzymes that meet stringent GMP standards internationally.
Our strict compliance with cGMP regulations, combined with advanced and comprehensive analysis and testing equipment, ensures thorough quality release testing and the highest standards of enzyme reliability.
Overview of GMP Compliance
The safety and quality of raw and ancillary materials are critically important in preclinical, clinical, and commercial manufacturing. Our recombinant proteins are produced and evaluated in compliance with GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) guidelines, following an ISO13485 certified quality management system, and using animal-origin free materials. To further ensure that our products do not affect your final product, we employ more rigorous quality control measures, which include sterility, endotoxin, heavy metal, residual DNase, etc.

Our Certifications
ISO13485 Certified
ISO13485:2016 certification is an internationally recognized standard that sets out the requirements for a quality management system that ensures companies adhere to stringent quality control measures, regulatory compliance, and risk management practices throughout the entire product lifecycle. Our company has obtained ISO13485:2016 certification to demonstrate our commitment to producing safe, reliable, and high-quality proteins and enzymes.
Approval ID: 00034327
FDA Drug Master Files (DMF)
A DMF (Drug Master File) is a document submitted by a company to the FDA. The document contains detailed information on the entire production process, including product formulations, plant facilities, production processes, and any other procedures involved in this product. DMF filing demonstrates transparency by the company and willingness to work alongside regulations. Additionally, when companies apply for a new product registration with the FDA, using materials with a DMF will shorten the registration time.
