The deadlines for the submission of oral presentations for HTC-11, the 11th International Symposium on Hyphenated Techniques in Chromatography and a special two-day symposium on Hyphenated Techniques for Sample Preparation are approaching.
The deadlines for the submission of oral presentations for HTC-11, the 11th International Symposium on Hyphenated Techniques in Chromatography and a special two-day symposium on Hyphenated Techniques for Sample Preparation are approaching and any scientists active in these fields are invited to submit abstracts by 1 September 2009.
The symposia will take place in Bruges, Belgium between 26–29 January 2010, with the two-day symposium on the first two days and the main symposium beginning on 27 January. The organizers have described the lecture programme as strong and report that there will be nearly 50 invited speakers from around the world at the event.
Scientists in the field are also invited to submit posters; the deadline for which is 1 December 2009.

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.
