Peter de Boves Harrington Receives EAS Award
The Eastern Analytical Symposium (EAS) Award for Outstanding Achievements in Chemometrics was presented to Peter de Boves Harrington on Tuesday 19 November.
The Eastern Analytical Symposium (EAS) Award for Outstanding Achievements in Chemometrics was presented to Peter de Boves Harrington on Tuesday 19 November. Harrington went on to present his talk “Chemometrics for the Masses: How to Painlessly Improve Your Science.” Harrington received his Ph.D. from the University of North CarolinaâChapel Hill in 1988. From 1987 to 1989 he created the DOS-based software platforms Resolve and Presager for identifying bacteria from their pyrolysisâmass spectra, while working for Kent Voorhees at the Colorado School of Mines. He joined the faculty of Ohio University (Athens, Ohio, USA) in 1989. In 1992, he founded the Center for Intelligent Chemical Instrumentation. He is the Director of the Ohio University Center for Intelligent Chemical Instrumentation and is a Fellow of the American Academy of Forensic Sciences and the North American Academy of Sciences. Harrington’s current research focuses on the development and coupling of artificial intelligence to chemotyping by spectrometric measurements of botanical medicines and foods.

Inside the Laboratory: The Richardson Group at the University of South Carolina
November 20th 2024In this edition of “Inside the Laboratory,” Susan Richardson of the University of South Carolina discusses her laboratory’s work with using electron ionization and chemical ionization with gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) to detect DBPs in complex environmental matrices, and how her work advances environmental analysis.
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.
