“Our knowledge-based company is active in the field of developing technologies and research in instrumental chemistry and classical and microbial chemistry in accordance with Iran’s national standards,” said Tohid Shamousi, the managing director of the knowledge-based company.
He referred to the development of inspection methods and control tools, and said, “In this section, supply chain quality control, inspection, control and monitoring of goods entering dry and cold warehouses are carried out.”
“In the store inspection section, strict implementation of quality requirements and strict implementation of integrity in all stores are considered. In the evaluation section of manufacturing plants, classifications and checklists are carried out in accordance with the standards of this field,” Shamousi said.
In a relevant development in October, Islamic Azad University had managed to produce and sell quality control diagnostic kits for recombinant drugs based on the international standards.
“After two years of research, development and validation, this product has been successfully sold to reputable pharmaceutical companies in Iran, and the consumption rate of this test is 80,000 reactions per year,” said Hamidreza Samadikhah, a faculty member of Islamic Azad University’s Central Tehran branch and the head of the research institute of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.
He noted that given the launch of production line of this product, the research and development process will be provided for different types of prokaryotic and eukaryotic hosts.
“The amount of host DNA contamination in recombinant protein drugs is detected with an accuracy of 10 picograms, which is based on the international standards,” Samadikhah said.
