Webcasts

Webinar Date/Time: Wed, Dec 13, 2023 10:00 AM EST

In this webinar, Purolite & MabPlex demonstrate the efficient purification of several bispecific antibodies using Purolite’s novel Protein A resin that allows for elution of antibodies at higher pH. Significant improvements in performance and productivity result in significantly increased monomer purity in comparison with traditional protein A resins.

Event Overview:

Join Purolite's Field Applications Specialist, Tony Thomas, and Kayla Barry, Senior Engineer from MabPlex, as they present findings on the efficient purification of several bispecific antibodies using Purolite’s novel Protein A resin that allows for elution of antibodies at higher pH. Significant improvements in performance and productivity result in significantly increased monomer purity in comparison with traditional Protein A resins.

Tony will also be taking a deep-dive into Purolite's Jetting technology, a continuous emulsification technology by which all Praesto® chromatography resins are produced. This proprietary technology results in resins with a narrow, almost uniform particle size distribution, with excellent mass transfer properties.

Key Learning Objectives

  • Resin comparison study with two bispecifics, Praesto Jetted A50 HipH and a standard Protein A resin
  • Overview of Jetting Technology.
  • Process intensification, Praesto Jetted A50
  • Introduction to Praesto Jetted A50 HipH.
