INVESTIGATION ON BIOSYNTHESIS OF SOME BIOSIMILAR DRUGS USING VARIOUS CULTURE TECHNIQUES

Biosimilar drugs give a greater prospect in the direction of medical treatment. Biosimilars are highly similar to the already marketed approved drugs in the terms of safety, efficacy and bioavailability. Biosimilar drugs are manufactured with slight modification in manufacturing techniques as compare to synthetic medicine (generic or chemically derived medicine). Biosynthetic potential of plant cell / animal cell utilized to biosynthesized biosimilar drugs. Introduction of new drugs in the form of biosimilars will bring in new drug delivery system. The assurance of high quality, safe and effective medication at reduce cost for the benefit of therapy that in long run are the important key points with biosimilar drugs. India gives 75% of biosimilar market, in which 30 biosimilar products are marketed out of 40 biological products. In 2000, first biosimilar for Hepatitis-B was registered and marketed in India. As of late more than 50 biopharmaceutical items have been confirmed in India, with the greater part of them being biosimilars. The present article focuses on detailed information of biosimilars and plant tissue culture techniques.
