Bioprocess Simulation: Why the Industry Needs To Embrace Engineering Rather Than Empirical Approaches?
By Roger-Marc Nicoud in Bioprocess International
In 1903, the Wright brothers built the first functioning airplane, and botanist Mikhail Tsvet became the first scientist to use chromatography to separate components of a solution (carotene pigments, in his case).
Now, 120 years later, new airplanes can be simulated with great precision and confidence — but chromatography process development in the biopharmaceutical industry still relies heavily on trial and error.
So why are we so far behind in using simulation to guide such work?
