E-Separation Solutions
Welcome to this special Pittcon 2010 Preview, brought to you by the staff of LCGC. Pittcon 2010, set to run from February 28 to March 5 in the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida, promises to be one of the most anticipated events in the field of analytical chemistry ? primarily because of its continuing position as the premier event in the industry, but also because of its added importance this year as a bellweather for the state of the conference industry as a whole.
Welcome to this special Pittcon 2010 Preview, brought to you by the staff of LCGC. Pittcon 2010, set to run from February 28 to March 5 in the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida, promises to be one of the most anticipated events in the field of analytical chemistry — primarily because of its continuing position as the premier event in the industry, but also because of its added importance this year as a bellweather for the state of the conference industry as a whole.
Many industry experts will be waiting anxiously for attendance numbers from this year’s conference, as speculation about the impact of the recession and virtual meetings in general has left many wondering how face-to-face events will fare in 2010.
Here at LCGC, there is a great deal planned this year, from the annual LCGC Awards taking place Monday, March 1 at 1 pm in Room 303ABC, to the LCGC/Spectroscopy Pittcon Audio & Video Theater taking place Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday at booth 2805. With the first two days dedicated to the hottest topics in the fields of chromatography and spectroscopy, and the third day dedicated to the launch of LCGC’sexciting new online learning community “CHOMAcademy,” this promises to be one of the biggest Pittcons in recent memory for LCGC.
We invite as many conference-goers as possible to stop by the podcast theater, attend the LCGC Awards Ceremony, or just say hello at the LCGC/Spectroscopy booth #2805. We look forward to seeing you in Orlando.
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.
