Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The subject invention provides an improved process for the production of human growth hormone.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A process for the production of human growth hormone (hGH) comprising: i. fermenting human growth hormone producing E. coli cells; ii. recovering inclusion bodies from the E. coli cells and dissolving the recovered inclusion bodies at an alkaline pH to provide dissolved hGH; iii. optionally lyophilizing dissolved hGH; and wherein the fermentation is carried out in a culture medium comprising manganese, zinc, cobalt, molybdenum, calciu…
