Analytica 2008
From 1–4 April 2008, Munich will once again be the stage for Analytica 2008 - a leading trade fair offering marketable solutions in analytics, laboratory technology, biotechnology and the life sciences.
From 1–4 April 2008, Munich will once again be the stage for Analytica 2008 — a leading trade fair offering marketable solutions in analytics, laboratory technology, biotechnology and the life sciences.
Since 1968 Analytica has been held every two years and has become an established international meeting point for leaders in the laboratory industry. It is also recognised for being a communication and business event for the international community, offering the presentation of innovative products and services and of the reproduction of entire value-added chains in industrial and research laboratory applications.
Analytica 2008, which will be held at Fairground, Munich, will feature international events to help build business relationships on a global scale. These will include the Analytica Forum, which is a platform for the exchange of information and transfer of knowledge, and the European international research community summit.
Analytica 2008's exhibits are divided into three separate segments — analysis/quality control, laboratory technology and biotechnology.
The trade fair will provide an overview for both decision-makers and those who prepare and participate in the decision-making process in the chemical, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, medicine, diagnostics, nutrition, environment, electrical engineering and electronics industries.
Analytica 2008 will also bring to the international community the Innovations Area — a platform for special attractions as well as exhibition sector. Lectures and discussions about future technologies will be held here on each day of the fair. The Innovations Area will also give start-up companies, bioregions, founder centers, research institutes and universities a platform where they can introduce themselves and their innovations.
Finance Day, which is being held for the first time on April 4 at the Innovations & Technology Forum, will help business people find investors for starting new companies and helping existing ones to grow. Finance Day's objective is to establish a network to bring together researchers and company founders in the life-science sector with investors. It will also introduce start-up founders to potential investors.

AI and GenAI Applications to Help Optimize Purification and Yield of Antibodies From Plasma
October 31st 2024Deriving antibodies from plasma products involves several steps, typically starting from the collection of plasma and ending with the purification of the desired antibodies. These are: plasma collection; plasma pooling; fractionation; antibody purification; concentration and formulation; quality control; and packaging and storage. This process results in a purified antibody product that can be used for therapeutic purposes, diagnostic tests, or research. Each step is critical to ensure the safety, efficacy, and quality of the final product. Applications of AI/GenAI in many of these steps can significantly help in the optimization of purification and yield of the desired antibodies. Some specific use-cases are: selecting and optimizing plasma units for optimized plasma pooling; GenAI solution for enterprise search on internal knowledge portal; analysing and optimizing production batch profitability, inventory, yields; monitoring production batch key performance indicators for outlier identification; monitoring production equipment to predict maintenance events; and reducing quality control laboratory testing turnaround time.
