Plasmid DNA Production

Biovian offers premium plasmid DNA CDMO services for preclinical, clinical and commercial production. In our Plasmid DNA production, we adhere to the same GMP standards from the starting material to the final drug products. The benefit of choosing a GMP-grade, yet cost-effective, plasmid CDMO from the start, lies in the smooth regulatory transition to the next steps. You can count on our skilled and passionate personnel to find the most suitable path and to guide you through your journey from gene to final vialled product.


Plasmid DNA Projects and Applications

Viral vector production (e.g. AAV, Lentivirus)
Cell and gene therapy
DNA vaccines
mRNA vaccines

Biovian manufactures plasmid DNA for a variety of client projects. One of our main focus areas is viral vector manufacturing for those gene therapies, where plasmid DNA constructs serve as key raw material. Our GMP plasmid DNA may also be used to develop novel DNA or mRNA vaccines and non-viral gene therapy applications. We have the flexibility to deal with plasmid DNA projects of various sizes. The options for E. coli fermentation for GMP plasmid DNA production extend up to 200 L.

Production of AAV plasmids

Three separate E. coli processes are needed to produce the necessary AAV plasmids for transfection. The bacterial cells are cultured under optimized growth conditions. The microbial cells are then harvested using centrifugation. To release the intracellular plasmids the cultured host cells are disrupted using alkaline lysis. Then the AAV plasmids are purified with chromatographic methods. Finally, the plasmids will be analyzed e.g. for their identity and purity, and E.coli master and working cell banks are generated.
