Event Overview:

The purification of process-related impurities is a critical, yet often challenging, step in biopharmaceutical development. Traditional batch chromatography forces a difficult trade-off between purity and productivity, making obtaining the milligram quantities of high-purity side-compounds needed for structural and safety studies slow and costly. This webinar will introduce the N-Rich process, a novel twin-column continuous chromatography method that overcomes these limitations. Using case studies on peptides, oligonucleotides, and mAb purification, this presentation will demonstrate how this automated technology can increase productivity by over 10-fold while simultaneously achieving purities of ~90% for previously difficult-to-isolate compounds.

Key Learning Objectives:

  • Understand the principles of the N-Rich twin-column continuous process.
  • Learn how to increase compound isolation productivity by over 10x vs. HPLC.
  • See how to achieve up to 90% purity for low-abundance peptide, oligonucleotide, and mAb impurities.

Who Should Attend:

  • Liquid Chromatography Specialists
  • Downstream Process Development Scientists
  • Purification Scientists
  • Analytical Scientists
  • CMC Leads
  • Lab Managers in Pharma/Biotech
