5 Questions
What is the characteristic feature of recombinant proteins within cells?
Recombinant proteins are most commonly found as inclusion bodies due to their high concentration in cells.
What initial process is required when the biological product is a tissue-derived substance?
When the biological product is tissue-derived, the source tissue first needs to be homogenized or ground into a cellular suspension.
What are the two types of intracellular products mentioned in the text?
The two types of intracellular products mentioned are soluble products in the cytoplasm and inclusion bodies.
What is the purpose of cell disruption in the context of bioengineering?
Cell disruption is used to release biological products, either intracellular or extracellular, into a solution for further processing.
Provide an example of a product obtained through cell disruption from the text.
An example provided is porcine insulin, which is obtained from the pancreas of pigs through cell disruption.
