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.

Automation Of A Homogeneous Proximity Assay For Detection Of Residual Protein A In Biological Therapeutics
Protein A is used in affinity chromatography for therapeutic antibody purification and has been shown to leach from columns during purification of antibodies resulting in contamination. Residual Protein A in therapeutic drugs could elicit mitogenic or immunological reactions in patients.

White Paper: Capillary Electrophoresis — A Simple Technique
In 1989, Beckman Instruments introduced the first fully automated capillary electrophoresis instrument (P/ACE™ 2000) to the scientific community. At that time, CE demonstrated exceptional resolving of selected compounds, but the new technology lacked a track record of applications. By Beckman Coulter, 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
