How can NMR spectroscopy help protein biopharmaceutical development?

24 February 2020 | By ,

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is a technique that most have heard of but many avoid, especially when dealing with larger biological macromolecules. Why? The common wisdom is that NMR can be complicated, expensive and involves quantum physics and complex equations. In the fast-paced industrial biopharmaceutical environment there may be…

Medicine delivery by drone – implications for safety and quality

20 November 2019 | By ,

Drones that transport medicines to emergency situations, urban environments or geographically-challenging locations are increasingly being utilised to improve delivery, however, there are few studies on their impact on drug stability. Here, Paul Royall and Patrick Courtney explore the implications of drone delivery on the safety and quality of medicines.

Can calorimetry provide accurate estimates of long‑term stability for monoclonal antibodies?

3 September 2019 | By

Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) has been one of the most widely used techniques to characterise the temperature stability of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and provide important information in formulation optimisation. However, despite its widespread use, not all the information contained in DSC data, especially denaturation kinetics, is routinely extracted. In this…
