Dr. Brad Vince Of Vince & Associates Clinical Research Announces Award Of Nearly $10M Contract From The National Institute On Drug Abuse

Vince & Associates Clinical Research announced it has been awarded a contract with the National Institute on Drug Abuse, part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), to carry out clinical pharmacology studies to determine the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of new medication in humans.

  • How Hepatitis C Invades The Body

    Researchers at the University of Colorado School of Medicine have figured out intimate details of how the hepatitis C virus takes over an invaded cell, a breakthrough that could point to way for new treatments for the virus.

  • Scientists Show Protein-Making Machinery Can Switch Gears With A Small Structural Change

    For the past several years, Min Guo, an assistant professor at The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI), has focused on the intricate actions of an ancient family of catalytic enzymes that play a key role in translation, the process of producing proteins.

  • Success Of Engineered Tissue Depends On Where It's Grown

    Tissue implants made of cells grown on a sponge-like scaffold have been shown in clinical trials to help heal arteries scarred by atherosclerosis and other vascular diseases. However, it has been unclear why some implants work better than others. By Anne Trafton

DOWNSTREAM PROCESSING WHITE PAPERS & CASE STUDIES

  • Sani-Tech® Ultra White Paper

    For several years, pharmaceutical manufacturing professionals have increasingly stated concerns about material leachables and extractables and their impact on the products they produce. Fluid transfer systems that include flexible tubing have been at the forefront of this discussion. 

  • 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.
  • Rapid Screening Of A Cell-Based Assay For GLP-1 Receptor Using A Natural Product Library

    Here we demonstrate the detection of GLP-1R binding through the incorporation of a homogeneous cell-based binding assay using HTRF Tag-lite® technology. By Brad Larson and Peter Banks, BioTek Instruments, Inc. and Nicolas Pierre, Suzanne Graham, Jean-Luc Tardieu, and François Degorce, Cisbio US, Inc.

  • Removal Of Host Cell Proteins During Monoclonal Antibody Purification

    Protein A chromatography is a widely used and highly successful method of purifying recombinant monoclonal antibodies. However, since Protein A has high affinity for antibodies, harsh conditions such as low pH are often required to elute monoclonal antibodies from Protein A affinity columns. By 3M Purification Inc

  • Biomanufacturing Complexity

    This white paper addresses one of the most serious challenges facing biomanufacturing professionals today - how to understand and then deal with the extreme complexity associated with biotechnology manufacturing.

  • Effect Of Sterilization On Mechanical Properties Of Silicone Rubbers

    Silicone rubber is widely used in the pharmaceutical industry where sterilizability is an essential requirement for all fluid transfer equipment. Pharmaceutical products must be sterilized frequently and repeatedly by high level energy and/or chemical vapor in order to eliminate bacterial surface contamination.
