Positions Available
in Cyto-Pharm, Inc.
Cyto-Pharm is a process
development company dedicated to produce human natural cytokines,
including interferon. Its core technology platform and the
human cell lines are under protection by 19 multi-national
patents. Cytokines derived from human cells overmatch their
recombinant counter parts produced in prokaryotic or other
eukaryotic systems since they show proper post-translational
modification and correct protein folding. Another advantage
demonstrates that human natural proteins have lower side effect
and better efficacy in the clinical applications. Although
the manufacturing of bacterial recombinant proteins is still
the mainstream in protein drug industry, the production technology
for the natural forms will prevail in the future, thanks to
the states of art on cell line development of strong interests
as well as bioreactor operation with optimal control. We currently
have 20 staff members and plan to triple the size of 60 in
the coming year. We are sincerely inviting persons who possess
