🧪 Production & Quality Assurance.
Production Overview
HCG is produced using biological expression systems, followed by controlled processing to obtain the target glycoprotein with defined structural characteristics.
Purification
The material is purified using chromatographic techniques, including high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), to remove impurities and ensure high purity.
Lyophilisation
The purified protein is lyophilised (freeze-dried) to yield a stable solid form. This process enhances stability and supports long-term storage under controlled conditions.
Analytical Characterisation
Each batch is analysed using:
HPLC for purity assessment
Mass spectrometry (MS) and/or bioanalytical methods for identity confirmation
Quality Assurance
Batches are produced under controlled laboratory conditions and evaluated against predefined quality criteria to ensure consistency, identity, and purity.
Batch Consistency
Standardised production and analytical verification ensure reproducibility across batches.
