Recombinant Factor C Methods for Endotoxin Testing: Towards Sustainable Development and Reliable Supply Chain
In 2020, vaccine research received significant attention as researchers were engaged in the race to develop an effective vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 worldwide. More broadly, the entire pharmaceutical industry is experiencing this rapid growth. In this context, supply chain sustainability is crucial. The use of horseshoe crab blood in the quality and safety control process is essential to ensure the safety of injectable and implantable pharmaceutical products. Environmental challenges are key in the debate around the use of traditional Limulus Amebocyte Lysate (LAL) methods in favor of more sustainable methods such as recombinant Factor C (rFC).
