Overview of Key Principles of Dynamic Light Scattering to protein therapeutic formulations – Part 2

This four-part series examines common issues and questions surrounding the principles, measurements and analysis of DLS data and discusses how to minimize the time required for and increase the accuracy of acquiring and interpreting DLS data during the biotherapeutic development process. In Part Two, we cover the influence of concentration effects and particle interactions on DLS results and provide a roadmap for identifying and distinguishing each type of concentration effect.

Fields & Applications Sample Preparation

Characterization of protein aggregates in suspension and on a filter membrane by Morphologically-Directed Raman Spectroscopy

The combination of static microscopy and Raman spectroscopy in the Morphologi G3-ID enables automated chemical identification of protein aggregates and other contaminants in a biotherapeutic sample, either in suspension via a thin-path wet cell or on a filter membrane.

Fields & Applications Sample Preparation

Microcalorimetry as a tool for structural biology

Learn how Isothermal titration calorimetry can be used to guide protein (RNA)/ligand crystallization and to resolve common issues with crystallization of complexes.

Fields & Applications Sample Preparation

Characterization of IgG monomers & their aggregates

Determining the components, and their proportion, in a protein sample is essential for the improvement of candidate formulations and characterization of final formulations.

Detecting agglomerates within pharmaceutical formulations

Particle agglomeration can compromise the clinical efficacy of pharmaceutical products and must therefore be closely controlled. Automated particle image analysis provides one technology which can aid agglomerate detection. This article provides practical guidance on how imaging can be applied as a routine method to robustly identify and quantify the state of agglomeration of pharmaceutical formulations.
