Event Overview.
Adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) have recently gained significant attention in the field of gene and cell therapy because of their effectiveness at delivering genes to target cells in vivo and in vitro. Due to the increasing demand for AAV therapeutic drug production, there have been many efforts to engineer and improve new AAV variants. To guarantee the potency of AAV therapies, their purity must be assessed. Scientists continue seeking rapid, accurate, and cost-effective methods to characterize how much DNA payload is within the AAV capsids. In this webinar, an overview of the analytical chromatography techniques for the characterization of AAVs will be discussed.
Key Learning Objectives:
- Learn how to optimize your analytical chromatography method for the separation of AAV components with the highest resolution.
- Explore size exclusion and ion exchange chromatography for AAV analysis.
- Discover how adding MALS detection enhances the characterization of AAVs.
Who Should Attend:
- Scientists and lab managers seeking rapid, accurate, and cost-effective LC-MALS methods to characterize AAVs.

Using Chromatography to Study Microplastics in Food: An Interview with Jose Bernal
December 16th 2024LCGC International sat down with Jose Bernal to discuss his latest research in using pyrolysis gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (Py-GC–MS) and other chromatographic techniques in studying microplastics in food analysis.
Next Generation Peak Fitting for Separations
December 11th 2024Separation scientists frequently encounter critical pairs that are difficult to separate in a complex mixture. To save time and expensive solvents, an effective alternative to conventional screening protocols or mathematical peak width reduction is called iterative curve fitting.
Investigating the Influence of Packaging on the Volatile Profile of Oats
December 10th 2024In the testing of six different oat brands, headspace sorptive extraction and comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC×GC–TOF-MS) reveal how various packaging types can affect and alter the oats’ volatile profile, underscoring the potential impact of packaging on food quality.
