Podcast:Developing ion-exchange methods for protein analysis
Optimizing Chromatographic Conditions for Protein Analysis with theACQUITY UPLC H-Class Bio System
Presented By
Across the pharmaceutical industry, there is growing emphasis on the development of biopharmaceuticals as the next wave of drugs contributing to human health. In this podcast series, we’ll be discussing how chromatographic analyses of biopharmaceuticals, particularly proteins, compare to the more familiar assays of small molecule drugs and the benefits that UPLC® Technology can offer. The types of assays will be described and the basis for choosing them is considered. We’ll also discuss recent developments in ways to improve an analytical method.
Biopharmaceutical proteins are often best analyzed using ion exchange chromatography. Optimization of these methods has become much more efficient with UPLC technology. In this episode, the steps and considerations required for developing an ion exchange method for protein analysis are discussed.

Fundamentals of Benchtop GC–MS Data Analysis and Terminology
April 5th 2025In this installment, we will review the fundamental terminology and data analysis principles in benchtop GC–MS. We will compare the three modes of analysis—full scan, extracted ion chromatograms, and selected ion monitoring—and see how each is used for quantitative and quantitative analysis.
Characterizing Plant Polysaccharides Using Size-Exclusion Chromatography
April 4th 2025With green chemistry becoming more standardized, Leena Pitkänen of Aalto University analyzed how useful size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) and asymmetric flow field-flow fractionation (AF4) could be in characterizing plant polysaccharides.
