This LCGC Blog installment explains how NIST categorizes and certifies reference materials, and why they underpin reliable results in science and medicine.
Comparing manual and automated N-glycan profiling of a trastuzumab biosimilar, researchers found that both workflows detected the same glycan types, but automation gave more reproducible results (mean CV of about 5.7% vs. 7.95%), making it better suited to high-throughput analysis in biopharmaceutical development.
Malte Hübschen of the University of Duisburg-Essen (Germany) discusses an automated gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS) workflow that improves phthalate detection in tricky oils with LCGC International.
