Types of modern biopharmaceutical technologies

Biopharmaceutical technology mainly includes cell engineering pharmaceutical, fermentation engineering pharmaceutical, enzyme engineering pharmaceutical.

1. Cell Engineering Pharmaceutical

Cell engineering is a technology that applies the theories and methods of cell biology, genetics, and analytical biology to large-scale culture of cells and genetic modification at the molecular level to produce them according to the interests and needs of mankind [1]. According to the different parts of operation, cell engineering can be divided into chromosome engineering, cytoplasmic engineering and cell fusion engineering. Cell engineering pharmaceutical technology is based on pharmaceutical engineering, using cell engineering technology to carry out drug development, research and production [1]. Cell engineering is widely used in biopharmaceutical technology, by culturing animal cells to produce products such as vaccines, monoclonal antibodies, or by culturing plant cells to obtain plants with medicinal value. At present, people can already produce ginseng, Panax notoginseng and other drugs through cell engineering, and the ingredients and their pharmacological properties are not significantly different from naturally occurring drugs.

2. Fermentation engineering pharmaceutical

Fermentation engineering pharmaceutical, also known as microbial engineering pharmaceutical, is a kind of modern bioengineering technology, according to the specific function of microorganisms to quickly produce useful products for people or directly apply microorganisms to industrial production. In fermentation engineering. People mainly use the metabolism of microorganisms to produce some primary or secondary metabolites, such as alcohol products and vinegar. With the development of modern biotechnology, people apply new technologies such as genetic engineering to the improvement of microorganisms, injecting new vitality into the traditional fermentation engineering, making it play an important role in the production of insulin, antibiotics and other drugs.
