The
relevance of biopharmaceuticals in the health sector
Fortress Biotech is a private
company that deals with the production and commercialization of novel
biopharmaceutical products. In other words, the company has a wider coverage
area in that it specializes in various pharmaceutical as well as biotechnology products.
Biopharmaceutical products are integrated products made from the professional
expertise in the fields of pharmacy and biotechnology. Many of us are unaware
of the distinction between these two fields. However, we are not ignorant of
the fact that pharmaceutical industries specialize in the production of drugs
that we use to treat various diseases, ailments, abnormalities, infections and
so on.
Although we might not also
know that, some of these major pharmaceutical industries also produce various
nutraceutical products that have added health benefits besides the fact that
they supply us the various food nutrients that our body needs for proper
functioning. Moreover, Fortress Biotech Inc has a keen interest in the
discovery of the various potential opportunities that biotechnology has to
offer to pharmaceutical industries.
As the name implies,
biotechnology refers to the application of biology to various technological
innovations. From the elementary point of view, biology is the study of living
things, which include both plants and animals. However, we were also made to
understand that cells are basic units of life. From this underlying basis, we
can infer that biopharmaceutical industries apply cellular processes to
synthesize drugs. Biotechnology aims at controlling the function of a cell in a
way to make it more predictable. Biotechnology is gaining widespread use in
various agricultural processes. In fact, biotechnology coupled with the various
advances in genetic research is now been used to alter the breeding processes
of crops for the benefit of humankind.
Fortress Biotech has taken it
upon itself to research into various biopharmaceuticals with the intent of
treating even the worst medical situations like cancer and various diseases
that relate to immunity. Biopharmaceutical products are therapeutic substances
that attempt to treat major diagnostic symptoms and background causes of
various abnormalities and diseases.
Strictly speaking, it is
important that we understand the major distinction between the usual
pharmaceutical products we are used to and the more recent biopharmaceutical
products. The unique difference lies in the method of production of these
drugs. Simply put, the way the former is produced is different from the latter.
Pharmaceuticals are produced via chemical synthesis while biopharmaceuticals
are produced within living organisms, which include mammalian cells, bacteria,
and yeast. Many of us might be concerned with the safety of these
biopharmaceuticals because it involves the use of living organisms. We should
not however ignore the fact that probiotics are gaining widespread use in food
industries today. Probiotics are products of microorganisms. Fortress Biotech
Inc also considers the safety of biopharmaceuticals.
