Director
In the Manufacturing Department, we combine scientific knowledge with advanced technology and turn it into innovative projects. Our fundamental activity is the manufacture of sterile biological products. The processes for manufacturing such products consist of several steps of cell culture – from flask to bioreactor, multi-step purification – by filtration and chromatography methods, as well as bottling into glass vials and packaging of the finished product.
We have state-of-the-art process equipment operating with single-use technology, which provides great flexibility in the processes carried out and minimizes the risk of cross-contamination.
Our structure includes a wide variety of disciplines, such as:
– production planning and scheduling,
– sterile production of recombinant protein products (in terms of DS, DP and wrapping and packaging),
– production of cellular and viral banks (including WCB, MCB, WVB),
– validation of manufacturing and supporting processes,
– conducting investigations into deviations, proposing and conducting corrective and remedial actions,
– planning and conducting preventive actions,
– personnel training,
– ensuring the cleanliness and hygiene of the Manufacturing Plant,
– working in compliance with GMP, ISO guidelines.

The majority of new projects originate within the Research and Development Department. It is here that we develop innovative solutions implemented to optimize the processes of mammalian and insect cell culture development, as well as the purification processes of obtained recombinant proteins. We are responsible for key activities related to the development, qualification, and transfer of quantitative and qualitative analysis methods, both necessary during the process development stage and for the characterization of the final product. We also conduct clinical studies from the planning stage to the analysis of pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and immunogenicity of drugs administered to patients.
Within the scope of the department’s work, we focus on the design and obtaining of expression systems, as well as the derivation of stable cell lines for the production of biological drugs, including biosimilars, and the development and optimization of protein purification methods.
We deal with the transfer and characterization of protein manufacturing processes. We replicate the manufacturing process on a laboratory scale to verify the impact of various factors on the final product quality, starting from cell culture and ending with product purification. We also actively participate in scaling up the manufacturing process.
In order to continuously and reliably monitor the progress of the conducted processes and the quality of the resulting products, even at early stages of development, we develop, qualify, and validate analytical biological and physicochemical methods. A wide range of analytical methods is also utilized for the characterization of protein products and in similarity studies for biosimilar molecules.
We ensure the highest quality of all the aforementioned activities through a team with extensive expertise and by consulting proposed solutions with EMA and FDA regulatory authorities.
Another distinguishing feature is our experienced team of clinical analysts, focusing on developing demanding and unique analytical methods. These allow us to characterize key drug parameters such as pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics or immunogenicity using innovative analytical techniques and equipment – all within GLP-certified laboratories.
We are also directly involved not only in verifying the workflow at clinical sites, but also actively participate in the entire process, which includes:
- Designing the clinical trial and consulting its strategy with the EMA/FDA,
- Creating the study protocol,
- Clinical trial start-up, overseeing and monitoring the work of clinical sites and CROs,
- Creating reports and closing the clinical trial,
- Preparation of the clinical part of the registration application to EMA/FDA for a medicinal product.

Dorota Owczarek – Hamrol
Director, Qualified Person
Working in the Quality Control Department provides you an opportunity to participate in a variety of projects. We work with modern equipment and a wide panel of various analytical methods, such as high-performance liquid chromatography, flow cytometry, mass spectrometry, capillary electrophoresis or real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). We conduct in vitro cell cultures and biological activity tests. The primary tasks of the Quality Control Department include:
testing the biological and physicochemical properties of proteins produced at Mabion, quality verification of all raw materials used in the production process, testing the stability of products at all stages of production and determining their shelf life – verifying the microbial purity and/or sterility, development of quality documentation.
In addition, our team actively participates in the preparation of data needed for product registration and validation of analytical methods, as well as supports sterile processes such as product filling and simulation of the product filling process.

Tomasz Kurpiewski
Director
The Maintenance Department is responsible for maintaining the plant’s infrastructure and equipment in proper technical condition for safe operation. We are responsible for the availability of utilities, necessary for the operation of the plant, including clean utilities, manufacturing operations. We supervise the production of WFI water, provide electricity, heat, cold, and technical gases. We take care of an extensive HVAC system to ensure environmental conditions for rooms of different cleanliness classes, according to ISO standards and pharmacopoeial guidelines. There is also a qualification unit within the Maintenance Department. The unit works closely with the technical part of the maintenance department, and with every department within Mabion. It is responsible for maintaining the equipment of all departments in a qualified condition. It also supervises measuring and control equipment to ensure timely calibrations. The Maintenance Department works in compliance with the GMP system.
