Why is insulin dominated by a few companies globally and if bacteria are used to produce human insulin, why can no other company replicate this?
In: Biology
It’s one thing to make some insulin of some quality.
It’s a totally different thing to make a lot of insulin, in such a high quality that it is safe for humans, consistently.
Not only that, you also need to *prove* that you can make it in high quality consistently, with loads and loads of certifications and paperwork and tests.
And all that while you still have to make enough money.
