Avoiding Drug Shortages With Microbial Detection
Over the past year, critical drug shortages used to treat a host of life-threatening illnesses have been making headlines. Microbial contamination has been cited as a major contributor to the shortage, yet the prevailing practices to ensure the safety of drugs have been slow to change. In most cases, quality assurance practices safeguarding the drug making environment continue to rely on periodic air and a culturing method from a prior century.

Bio-Beads SM-2 nonpolar polystyrene adsorbents are analytical grade, neutral macroporous polymeric beads for use in hydrophobic interaction chromatography.
A proven method for confirming protein purity and yield without the need for gel staining steps. Stain-free gels provide visual confirmation of protein purity and yield by gel electrophoresis in less than 30 minutes. Stain-free technology is perfect for drug discovery, drug development, and method development for preclinical research.
Resin are designed specifically for intermediate purification steps that remove host-cell contaminants from partially purified targets using strong or weak hydrophobic interactions. Methacrylate-based beads for protein and nucleic acid purification using hydrophobic interactions are available for purifying compounds that have weak or strong hydrophobic regions.
