mRNA Manufacturing and Formulation
Unleashing the power of mRNA technology to revolutionize how diseases are treated and prevented relies on robust and consistent processes . Our lipid nanoparticle (LNP) manufacturing processes ensure a high-quality and consistent supply. Our portfolio and services, including our lipids and LNP CDMO services and mRNA testing services, address the most critical challenges in mRNA-based therapeutics manufacturing enabling fast timelines and high-quality purified drug products.
We also realize that protecting mRNA from degradation risks by RNases or microbial contamination is key to successful mRNA manufacturing, purification, and formulation. That’s why we offer our high-quality pharma raw materials that are tested for endonuclease activity and have low bioburden and endotoxin levels. Our pharma/biopharma raw materials also comply with IPEC-PQG GMP requirements and are part of the Emprove®Program. The program offers comprehensive regulatory documentation and covers also some of our filters and single-use components and selected chromatography resins.

Plasmid DNA Production, mRNA Synthesis, and mRNA Purification Products
Our products can be used for the entire mRNA synthesis workflow from generating plasmid DNA to synthesizing mRNA and finally to purifying mRNA. They come in a variety of sizes so that you can scale up from development to suit your production goals. These include:
- High-quality raw materials and excipients including endonuclease-free chemicals, in vitro transcription (IVT) enzymes and nucleoside triphosphates (NTPs) backed by regulatory support as part of the Emprove® Program
- Fluid management systems throughout production including single-use assemblies, single-use mixers (ex: 10L and 50L), sterile sampling systems, and connections/disconnections for bioprocessing
- Sterile filters for bacterial removal throughout the process
- Clarification depth filters and clarification filter holders and systems to efficiently remove cells, cellular debris, and other insoluble contaminants and impurities
- Tangential flow filtration (TFF) and chromatography systems and consumables to remove restriction enzymes, BSA, DNA fragments, endotoxins, and other impurities. We offer several options for anion exchange chromatography that can be easily scaled from the lab bench. TFF can also be used to exchange buffers during plasmid linearization, in vitro transcription, and more.
These materials can also be used during the mRNA formulation steps.
Lipid Nanoparticle Formulation
Our portfolio lipids and custom lipid synthesis services help you bring your formulation to scale. As naked mRNA is unstable, drug delivery systems, such as lipid nanoparticles, are necessary to deliver mRNA to target cells. Selecting the right excipient and lipids is essential for successful encapsulation. We provide:
- Custom and portfolio lipids options for the different types of lipids you need to create stable LNPs and protect the mRNA, including synthetic cholesterol. Each LNP contains four different lipids to carry and protect the mRNA
- Excipients for liquid formulations, mineral salts, buffers, and stabilizers, all supported by the Emprove® Program.
- Integrity testers to verify the integrity of sterilizing filters
- Filters for your final sterile filtration
- LNP formulation and manufacturing CDMO and fill and finish services
Cell Banking and Storage
Banking and storing your strains or plasmids are crucial parts of the mRNA manufacturing process. We offer banking and storage space for your stocks in various biorepository and storage facilities around the globe. You can also choose from our master viral seed stocks.
