Operations will continue and may even be enhanced at DSM’s Australian taxpayer-funded biologics plant following a merger with Patheon, the Queensland Government says.
DSM says its new biomanufacturing facility will benefit the Australian biotech sector, overcoming the problems of distance with foreign contract manufacturers.
With backing from the Australian Government, DSM has opened a mammalian cell culture operation to fuel the growing demand in the Asia-Pacific biologics market.
Crucell and DSM Biologics have added fellow Dutch firm Bioceros to the PER.C6 vendor network to provide manufacturing and support capacity in line with increased demand for the cell line.
