On the suggestion that per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) affect both lactation and the human metabolome, perfluorooctanoate (PFOA) and perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) were measured in the milk of 425 participants from the New Hampshire Birth Cohort Study using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS).

LCGC International sat down with Faith Johnson of ECOLAB to discuss her career and work with the Females in Mass Spectrometry (FeMS) group.

Deriving 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.

In the development of protein-based drugs, deep analysis of glycan types and locations and high-throughput trending analysis of glycan profiles are crucial to maintaining product quality.

In a new study, scientists introduced no-code automation as a strategic response for addressing talent shortages in the chemical industry.
