Drop-coating deposition Raman spectroscopy for metabolite profiling
There has been a lot of interest in enhancing the sensitivity of Raman spectroscopy due to the low efficiency of the Raman technique. A pre-concentration technique, drop-coating deposition Raman (DCDR), has been used in recent years to increase the utility of Raman spectroscopy by decreasing the detection limit for non-enhanced…

Whitepaper: A high-quality Raman microscope can be recognised by these five criteria
90 years ago Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman and Kariamanickam Srinivasa Krishnan first documented "A New Type of Secondary Radiation," which then became known as the Raman Effect [1, 2]. Raman spectroscopy is based on this effect and is used for qualitative and quantitative analysis of the chemical components and molecules of…

Whitepaper: Characterising antibody-drug conjugates using micro pillar array columns combined with mass spectrometry (μPAC™-MS)
The use of micro pillar array columns (μPAC™) for characterising antibody-drug conjugates is presented. Kadcyla® (ado-trastuzumab emtansine) and, for comparison, Herceptin® (trastuzumab) tryptic digests were analysed on a 200 cm μPAC™ C18 column and peaks eluting were detected by ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopy and high-resolution mass spectrometry (MS).

Application Note: Representative sampling of solids and turbid media in process raman spectroscopy
Raman spectroscopy is an analysis technique that provides a “molecular fingerprint” of the sample, enabling analysis of chemical composition and molecular structure without sample preparation. As a measurement technique, Raman imparts many benefits in applications from laboratory discoveries to feedback-control in manufacturing.

LC-MS based multi-attribute method for characterisation and QC testing of protein therapeutics
For several decades mass spectrometry (MS) has been used in the characterisation of protein pharmaceuticals.1-3 However, its use in the laboratory for quality control (QC) product release testing has been quite limited for a number of reasons, for example: instrument complexity and software are not readily amenable to validation, extensive…

Advances in automated performance verification for UV/VIS spectrophotometers
22 August 2018 | By Mettler-Toledo
Regulated environments require performance verification (qualification) of UV/VIS spectrophotometers on a regular basis. Instrument performance is the main factor directly affecting the accuracy and repeatability of measurements. Hence, it is important that this is regularly monitored and that documentary evidence is provided. Optical performance verification is conducted to the widely…
