DOWNSTREAM PROCESSING WHITE PAPERS & CASE STUDIES

  • Met One Sensors Resistant To Vaporous Hydrogen Peroxide (VHP) Pharmaceutical manufacturers often require an aseptic production environment to minimize the presence of microbes and their potential contamination of the manufactured product.
  • Efficiencies Of Natural Convection In Passive Pallet Shippers

    Bulk transportation of temperature sensitive pharmaceuticals and biologics has become a common practice due to complex global supply chains. By Iftekhar Ahmed, Ben VanderPlas, and Stu Krupnick

  • 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. By Aric Meares, President and CEO, BioVigilant

  • White Paper: Economic Analysis Of Single-Use Tangential Flow Filtration For Biopharmaceutical Applications Prior to creating an accurate economic model for TFF, a thorough understanding of the process where the TFF is used is needed. A process model is a valuable tool when properly executed and it must accurately include all critical aspects of the purification process. By Michael LaBreck, Mark Perreault, Novasep
  • Guidelines For Proper Filtration And Delivery Of Samples To On-Line Process Analyzers

    Increasingly precise process control strategies, often linked to computer control, have accelerated the use of sophisticated on-line chemical composition analyzers in plant applications. Instruments such as gas and liquid chromatographs, ion chromatographs, laser optic instruments, atomic absorption instruments and specific ion analyzers, which were rarities in laboratories ten years ago, are now found routinely in plant settings. By Ken Perrotta, Division Engineering Manager

  • An Automated Profiling Application For G9a Histone Methyltransferase And Bromodomain Proteins

    Due to several findings, G9a and BET bromodomain proteins have become the target for numberous drug discovery projects. In this study, we describe a novel, cell-based assay platform that uses the robust, yet simple Enzyme Fragment Complementation (EFC) Technology.
