The world's largest recombinant human albumin fermenter system undertaken by Morimatsu has been successfully shipped, which will help the customer to build recombinant human albumin drug substance and drug product manufacturing bases. Morimatsu is responsible for the design, manufacture, installation, testing, commissioning, operation, maintenance, and after-sales services of all equipment in this project. 

Besides already delivered the set of 100,000L fermentation tank system, Morimatsu shipped another 4 sets of 100,000L scale of fermentation and supporting purification and preparation production lines. Among which, the upstream fermentation part includes a series of seed tanks, fermenters, medium preparation tanks, feeding tanks, and CIP stations for serving these systems. 

The project meets FDA and GMP specifications, with stable process and world-leading quality standards. After completion, the drug substance and drug product will be supplied to the global market, and the production capacity of 100 tons of recombinant human albumin will be achieved after full completion.

So far, there has been no clinical application of recombinant human albumin injection globally. Therefore the completion of this project will contribute to fill the gap of first-in-class  innovative drugs in the world. 

The smooth delivery of this project not only demonstrates Morimatsu's excellent manufacturing strength and overall delivery capability in the field of large-scale fermenter equipment, but also helps customers’ construction of innovative drug production bases, as well as continuously promotes global biopharmaceutical innovation and human health steady improvement.
