PlasmidFactory
PlasmidFactoryCOMPANY
PlasmidFactoryGmbH & Co. KG is a globally active biopharmaceutical company, founded in Bielefeld, Germany, in 2000. The leading contract manufacturing organization (CMO) for plasmid and minicircle DNA has a strong customer base in the fields of cancer research, gene and cell therapy, CAR T-cell development, and vaccination.
PlasmidFactoryproduces plasmIDSand minicircles according to client's requirements in modern laboratories with high quality standards.
The company's R&D activities are focussed on its core competencies: Production, analysis and storage of plasmid and minicircle DNA.
The PlasmidFactory team is formed of biologists, chemists, engineers and technical assistants.
PlasmidFactoryis working on the following research topics – in close co-operation with industrial and academic partners.
Transient AAV production
Development of non-viral vector systems free of resistence gene sequences (e.g. minicircle)
Research on long-term storage of plasmid DNA and parameters influencing the stability (e.g. plasmid size, DNA concentration, storage buffer)
Influence of freeze and thaw conditions on plasmid topology
DNA vaccine development for cat fibrosarcoma
Production of dimer or multimer plasmids (e.g. reporter gene vectors)
Application of capillary gel electrophoresis (CGE)
Optimization of vectors for co-transfection, e.g. for production of viruses (AAV, LV) or antibodies
Optimization of lentiviral vector systems
Vector development for hepatitis vaccines
Clinical and pre-clinical research for non-viral vectors
Furthermore,PlasmidFactoryco-operates with national and international partners on individual projects.
