“…9 Many different analytical tools and techniques were applied for the thorough characterization at different levels, including: amino acid analysis, peptide mapping, reduced intact mass analysis, free thiol analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, antibody conformational array, X-ray crystallography, various modes of chromatography, light scattering, analytical ultracentrifugation, electrophoresis, isoelectric focusing, monosaccharide analysis, sialic acid analysis, glycopeptide analysis, N-glycan analysis, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and surface plasmon resonance. 9 Biosimilar antibodies must have the same amino acid sequence as the reference marketed product. 10 However, because mAbs are large molecules with highly complex structures, the products are sensitive to changes in host cells, media, and manufacturing process.…”
