Event Overview:
Multispecific antibodies have emerged as powerful modulators of important disease-relevant signaling pathways. Antibody formats that employ multiple distinct chains and asymmetric pairing can be especially challenging from an analytical perspective due to the potential for chain mispairing. Intact mass characterization is a robust method for determining the identity and relative abundance of the native versus mispaired proteins in a sample, however, analysis of multiple proteins in a single sample presents challenges at the data processing stage. This presentation will discuss approaches for medium- and high-throughput analysis of multispecific antibodies using Byos software with AWS automation workflows. This data has been especially valuable in guiding selection of optimal therapeutic candidates produced on our high-throughput protein production platform.
Key Learning Objectives:
- Analytical process and research design used in characterizing multispecific antibody therapeutics
- How to develop and employ a comprehensive LC–MS workflow for characterizing protein therapeutics
- How to employ automated data analysis tools and workflows for optimizing multispecific monocloncal antibodies
Who Should Attend:
- Drug discovery, development and QA/QC scientists who are doing protein characterization
- Application chemists
- Biopharma scientists
- Process chemists
- Anyone with an interest in biotherapeutic development

Advances in Non-Targeted Analysis for PFAS in Environmental Matrices
March 27th 2025David Megson from Manchester Metropolitan University in Manchester, UK, spoke to LCGC International about the latest developments in non-targeted analysis (NTA) of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in environmental matrices based on a recent systematic review paper he has collaboratively published (1).
Study Explores Thin-Film Extraction of Biogenic Amines via HPLC-MS/MS
March 27th 2025Scientists from Tabriz University and the University of Tabriz explored cellulose acetate-UiO-66-COOH as an affordable coating sorbent for thin film extraction of biogenic amines from cheese and alcohol-free beverages using HPLC-MS/MS.
Multi-Step Preparative LC–MS Workflow for Peptide Purification
March 21st 2025This article introduces a multi-step preparative purification workflow for synthetic peptides using liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS). The process involves optimizing separation conditions, scaling-up, fractionating, and confirming purity and recovery, using a single LC–MS system. High purity and recovery rates for synthetic peptides such as parathormone (PTH) are achieved. The method allows efficient purification and accurate confirmation of peptide synthesis and is suitable for handling complex preparative purification tasks.
