Interactive Charts: A Powerful New Tool for Understanding Chromatography Data
The interactive charting capabilities provide chemists with powerful new tools for analysing chromatography data more efficiently.
Chromatographers are generating more data than ever, as they adopt automation tools and faster methods to keep up with demands for increased productivity and for higher confidence in results. Managing all the data has become a major challenge because there is not enough time to scrutinize every chromatogram and result. Analysts need efficient ways to view the big picture, to spot significant items within the larger data set and to quickly analyse specific items that need closer examination.
A natural and effective solution is to present data graphically. Graphical representations allow large amounts of data to be presented in a compact format, facilitate comparison and make anomalies easy to detect. For example, the MiniPlots featured in the Chromeleon 7.1 chromatography data system (CDS) software presents a detailed miniature thumbnail image of each chromatogram in an injection sequence or query result. The user can scan dozens of chromatograms quickly and immediately spot any that differ in number of peaks, peak size or shape, background profile and so on.
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.
