  • Mass detection and mAb QC: How a cost-effective and robust peptide mapping method confirms CDR peptides – and can be validated

    The quality issues of biopharmaceutical therapeutics are definitely different from chemical drugs because of the increased complexity of manufacturing processes and complexity of the biologic molecules themselves. There is an increasing need for detailed product characterization and control of the manufacturing process. Sheng Hou et.al. have developed and validated a practical, cost efficient, robust adalimumab…

  • Ion Mobility Mass Spectrometry – Catch the Excitement!

    Interest in ion mobility mass spectrometry (IMS) technology is growing rapidly. The signs are everywhere. Since the year 2000, the number of abstracts submitted to ASMS mentioning ion mobility has grown more than 10-fold – from 30 to more than 350 in 2015. For most of that time, ion mobility has been available commercially in…

  • ACQUITY Arc System: Transferring Validated HPLC Methods within USP Guidelines

    The thought of transferring established high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) methods onto a another vendor’s LC, or a new platform like UHPLC/UPLC, may cause a bit of anxiety for those that may be unaware of how easy it can be. The reason that the topic of analytical method transfer induces so much angst is that…

  • Can Sports Cars Increase Testosterone?

    According to published reports by Hiscox UK in 2008,  just listening to the sound of a sports car increased salivary testosterone levels in male and female participants. Another study, by Gad Saad et al, measured a testosterone increase in men who were given the opportunity to drive a $150,000 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet for an…

  • Is Ion Mobility Mass Spectrometry Child’s Play?

    On Wednesday evening after dinner and my usual digestif, I was watching the webcast “Making Ion Mobility Mass Spectrometry Routine” when my son walked by. “Wow dad, that’s kind of cool! What the heck is it?” he asked. “It’s ion mobility!! It’s an orthogonal and complementary resource for chromatography and mass spectrometry…” The digestif was…

  • Attention Method Development Scientists! Learn about novel tools for replicating your existing methods

    Webinar Highlights | Simplifying Methods Transfer: Novel Tools for Replicating Your Established Methods on an ACQUITY Arc System I’m Dr. Paula Hong, Principal Scientist at Waters Corporation. I recently conducted a webinar that talked about the instrument characteristics that can impact transfer of established reversed-phase methods across both HPLC and UHPLC systems. These factors include dwell…

  • Which LC Detector Should I Buy?

    You might not like the answer… So the other day, I was with a customer when they asked me, “Viet, there are so many detectors out there! How do I know which one I need?”  To which I answered with the one comment that all of you will love to hate, “It depends!” Detectors for…

  • Multiple Attribute Monitoring of Biopharmaceuticals Using Mass Detection

    Multiple attribute monitoring has become a hot topic of discussion within biopharmaceutical organizations as the methodology allows detection and measurement of more critical quality attributes than conventional methods. Waters recently sponsored an outstanding webinar on this topic, hosted by Genetic Engineering News and presented by our own Biopharmaceutical Senior Manager, Sean M. McCarthy, Ph.D. Watch…
