James Jorgenson Awarded Csaba Horváth Medal
Professor James Jorgenson of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, in North Carolina, USA, has received the Csaba Horváth Medal and Scroll at the Csaba Horváth Memorial Award Symposium, Yale West Campus Conference Center.
Professor James Jorgenson of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, in North Carolina, USA, has received the Csaba Horváth Medal and Scroll at the Csaba Horváth Memorial Award Symposium, Yale West Campus Conference Center.
Jorgenson received the award for his exemplary work in modern separation sciences, specifically his research in capillary electrophoresis and his proof of concept studies in ultrahigh-pressure liquid chromatography (UHPLC).
Following the award presentation, Jorgenson gave a plenary lecture on a novel packing technique for capillary columns using thick slurries with ultraâsonication. The resulting chromatogram from these columns displayed a plate count of 500,000 plates - twice that of standard columns. Jorgenson also spoke about his recent research work on graphitic carbon packing, which shows high retention for polar compounds and unique selectivity for isomeric separations. - L.B.

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.
