Process Chromatography Market – Increasing Technological Advancements, Benefits and Growing Demands for Process Chromatography Techniques by 2023

Process chromatography has become of the most enabling technologies in biopharmaceutical downstream processing and is used to purify small to large molecules for further use, rather than analysis. Various biopharmaceutical companies need high performance and high throughput on a large scale which can be achieved with the help of process-scale bioseparations. The prime purpose of [Read More...]

Researchers develop biosensor system that can detect different antibiotics in human blood

Researchers from Freiburg have developed a sensor platform that quantifies antibiotics in human blood within minutes A team of researchers from the University of Freiburg has developed a system inspired by biology that can detect several different antibiotics in human blood or other fluids at the same time. This biosensor system could be used for [Read More...]

Chemical shortage hampers ‘legal high’ work

Identification of suspect substances depends on reference materials that are in short supply. Attempts to understand and control new synthetic recreational drugs are being hindered by analysis laboratories' inability to obtain pure samples of the compounds, experts say. The growing problem of synthetic drugs — which include mimics of cannabis and amphetamine — came [Read More...]

Adding Raman Microspectroscopy to the Pharmaceutical Analytical Laboratory

Adding Raman Microspectroscopy to the Pharmaceutical Analytical Laboratory

Analytical laboratories in the pharmaceutical industry may serve many masters: manufacturing operations needs to release product quickly; quality assurance protects patients; product development requires analyses to support understanding of product stability, delivery systems and other factors. A contract analytical laboratory that works with many pharmaceutical companies, McCrone Associates (Westmont, Ill.) has used Raman microspectroscopy to solve [Read More...]
