Researchers at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bengaluru, have achieved a significant breakthrough in the mass production of recombinant proteins using Monosodium Glutamate (MSG). This innovation offers a safer and more environmentally friendly alternative to the traditional methanol-induced process, with broad implications for the biotechnology industry in producing essential substances such as vaccine antigens, insulin, and monoclonal antibodies.
