CASE STUDY3: INFLIXIMAB & ITS BIOSIMILAR Infliximab is a chimeric, anti-tumor necrosis factor monoclonal antibody which is effective in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis. Infliximab is traded under the name “remicade” and is originally licensed by Janssen. It works by binding to TNF-α and inhibits the binding of TNF-α with its receptor. TNF-α is a cytokine (chemical messenger) that is involved in systemic inflammation. CT-P13 (brand name- inflectra) is a biosimilar of infliximab…

As the population of polio victims increases, Salk is trying to develop the vaccine, which later will be renowned as the first successive polio vaccine in history. He wanted the vaccine to be safe.

The polychloroethen has small space of crystallinity and is amorphous. How can you account for the fact that poly(chloroethene) is much stiffer than poly(ethene)? (2.4) It believed that the main difference is the Cl molecule that has caused the stiffness in the chloroethane. This is due to bond between carbon and chlorine which is more polar bonds than the carbon and haydron bonds.Therefore there are more polar attractiopn between strands of monomers. The carbonyl group, C=O, occurs in two…
