Event Preview: analytica 2010
Analytica 2010 - an international trade fair that takes place in Munich, Germany from 23–26 March 2010 for the 22nd time.
Manufacturers of analysis, laboratory technology and biotechnology solutions are confidently looking forward to analytica 2010 — an international trade fair that takes place in Munich, Germany from 23–26 March 2010 for the 22nd time. Despite the economic crisis, the number of exhibitors will be approximately the same as it was in 2008. The share of international companies continues to increase steadily: more than one-third of all exhibitors come from countries other than Germany. They are also looking forward to brisk business and general economic data for the industry is relatively positive, so it appears that analytica 2010 is taking place at just the right time. The analytica Conference and an extensive programme of related events will ensure additional dialogue and promote the transfer of knowledge within the industry. Among other things, discussions and lectures at the 2010 fair will focus on topics such as industrial biotechnology, fine-particle exposure and analysis and patient-specific diagnostics.
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.
