Summary
Downstream Process Development focuses on the recovery and purification of biological products following cell culture/fermentation — clarification, cell lysis, chromatography (affinity, ion-exchange, multi-modal, SEC, HIC), filtration (TFF, depth, sterile, viral), and continuous/integrated processing. It develops, optimizes, scales up, transfers, and validates purification unit operations to deliver target yield, purity, potency, and consistency. Distinct from Upstream Process Development (cell line/culture and fermentation), Analytical Development (assay/method development and characterization), and Formulation (drug product/stability).
