As modern biopharma pipelines evolve toward increasingly complex modalities, such as therapeutic oligonucleotides, analytical scientists face a familiar pressure: obtain higher sensitivity from smaller samples, while reducing solvent consumption and workflow burden. Microflow liquid chromatography (LC) has emerged as a powerful strategy to meet these demands, and recent column technology innovations are pushing performance even…
The Role of Enzymes in LC-MS Analysis of Modern Biotherapeutics Enzymes are nature’s catalysts, enabling precise and efficient biochemical transformations. In analytical workflows, enzymatic digestion is a cornerstone technique for breaking down complex biomolecules into smaller, more manageable fragments. This process is critical for applications such as peptide mapping in protein characterization and oligonucleotide mapping…
Slalom chromatography is no longer just a scientific curiosity, it’s a comeback story. Once sidelined due to limited reproducibility and unclear mechanisms, this technique is now gaining momentum thanks to the rise of nucleic acid therapeutics and advances in UHPLC systems. But its revival wasn’t accidental. It took a year-long deep dive into DNA physics,…
