The Potency for Live Biotherapeutic Products
Live biotherapeutic products have emerged as a group of exciting new drug candidates. Companies all over the world are currently developing live biotherapeutic products to address a large range of diseases. A potency test, known as a quantitative test, is designed to measure and determine the biological activity of the given live biotherapeutic products. The potency of live biotherapeutic products is generally a measure of viable cells per unit or dose, i.e., colony-forming units (CFUs), depending on the specific product strains and knowledge of the mechanisms of action. Biological activity or potency is a critical quality attribute; therefore, potency testing is an essential component of quality control for live biotherapeutic products.
Potency Test Services
For live biotherapeutic products that are expected to function, a toolbox of potency tests may be necessary to support both product development and quality control. Creative Biolabs provides a full range of development and verification services for live biotherapeutic products. With extensive experience in establishing, validating, and conducting routine tests, Creative Biolabs can perform a comprehensive array for a variety of biologically active molecules.
Test Methods
-
Viable Cell Count
Quantitatively detect the number of live, viable probiotics in the sample.
-
For multi-strain products
Enumerate all strains in the product and confirm whether the particular probiotic strains shown on the label are present.
-
Additional biochemical or physicochemical measurements are thought to predict potency, as applicable.
-
Stability data (duration of the treatment phase of the study).
Detect harmful contaminants that may affect the quality of probiotic supplements.
Samples
-

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the potency of probiotics?
The potency of probiotics is typically measured in colony-forming units (CFUs), which accurately provide the number of live bacteria. CFUs represent the number of viable microorganisms in a probiotic supplement. The higher the CFU count, the more potent the probiotic. However, the effectiveness of probiotics doesn't solely depend on their ability to permanently colonize the intestine. Regular ingestion is necessary to provide benefits.
What does a high-potency probiotic do?
A high-potency probiotic, with a substantial number of viable microorganisms (measured in colony-forming units or CFUs), can offer several potential benefits:
-
Gut health: High-potency probiotics can help maintain the balance of gut flora. They promote the growth of beneficial bacteria and inhibit harmful bacteria, contributing to overall gut health.
-
Support digestion: Probiotics help digestion by utilizing complex carbohydrates to produce short-chain fatty acids, promoting nutrient absorption.
-
Immune system modulation: Probiotics interact with immune cells in the gut, potentially boosting immune responses and reducing inflammation.
-
Reducing the risk of diarrhea: Certain highly efficient probiotic strains can reduce the risk of antibiotic-associated diarrhea, infectious diarrhea, and traveler's diarrhea.
-
Support for specific diseases.
