Separation Sciences
The first presentation in this Tuesday morning session will be given by Tadeusz Gorecki of the University of Waterloo and is titled “Comprehensive Multidimensional Separations: Can They Get Better?” Gorecki will discuss both GCxGC and LCxLC separations and will present examples of both approaches.
Session 870
Room 308B
10:05-11:25 a.m.
The first presentation in this Tuesday morning session will be given by Tadeusz Gorecki of the University of Waterloo and is titled “Comprehensive Multidimensional Separations: Can They Get Better?” Gorecki will discuss both GCxGC and LCxLC separations and will present examples of both approaches.
Next, Yuki Hiruta of Keio University will present a talk titled “Antibody Purification Using Temperature-Responsive Hydrogel Modified Silica Beads.” This presentation will describe a purification method for proteins such as monoclonal antibodies that involves the use of a solid-phase extraction system that enables control of elution behavior by adjusting the temperature of an aqueous eluent with neutral pH.
The next presentation, to be given by Muhammad Zahid of the University of Agriculture Faisalabad, Pakistan, is titled “Enhanced Extraction of Bioactive Components from Aloe barbadensis Miller Using Environmental Friendly Deep Eutectic Solvents.” Deep eutectic solvents are emerging green solvents that can be used for highly efficient extraction of natural products from plant biomass. They can also be used as safe extraction media for bioactive compounds used in applications such as cosmetics, food flavors, and pharmaceuticals.
The session’s final presentation, titled “From a Pit to a Ladder: Strategies and Techniques for Improved Biomacromolecule Separations,” will be given by Cory E. Muraco of MilliporeSigma. This presentation will discuss selected aspects of size-exclusion, hydrophobic interaction, ion-exchange, hydrophilic interaction, and reversed-phase chromatography, as well as the development of robust and reproducible analytical chromatographic schemes for separating protein and antibody mixtures.

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.
