Measuring protein molecular weight using the Viscotek SEC-MALS 20 connected to a Waters Empower® SEC system

In this application note, we show that Malvern’s OmniSEC software can now communicate with Waters Empower® for the seamless exchange of sample sequences. A selection of proteins was used to demonstrate the measurement of protein molecular weight, oligomeric and aggregation state.

PEGylated proteins: Optimizing conjugation reactions using triple detection SEC

In this application note, one protein, interferon α-5, was conjugated with two different PEG molecules in different reactions.  The protein and PEG molecules were characterized individually using multi-detector SEC, followed by the PEGylated conjugates.  Their composition, molecular weights and intrinsic viscosities were measured. This work was performed by Celares GMBH, Germany with samples provided by DIGNA BIOTECH, Spain
