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

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

Managing Cell-Based Potency Assays: From Development To Lifecycle Maintenance
Characterization of a biological product — which includes the determination of physicochemical properties, biological activity, immunochemical properties, purity and impurities — is necessary to establish the safety and efficacy profile of a given product (ICH Q6B). By Dr. Weihong Wang, manager, Molecular and Cell Biology, Eurofins Lancaster Laboratories

Proven Long Life Lasers™ In Optical Particle Counters Optical particle counters (OPC) utilize light illumination and extinction to determine the presence, size, number and/or concentration of particles. Particles are typically suspended in a fluid or air, which flow through the volume that is illuminated and viewed by the detection system.
