Isothermal Microcalorimetry in Pharmaceutical Science

Isothermal Microcalorimetry in Pharmaceutical Science This webinar will review the microcalorimetric techniques that are most commonly used within pharmaceutical science, including stability and compatibility tests, determination of small amounts of amorphic content, and characterizing polymorphism. A microcalorimeter can quantify the amount and rate of heat release from chemical processes associated with stability and shelf…

Biophysical Characterization of Antibody Drug Conjugates Using DSC

In this webinar, Dr. Colette Quinn discusses the use of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) in protein stability characterization differences resulting from preparation changes of identical systems. Protein stability, particularly antibodies, can be determined via DSC without restrictions on buffers, excipients, and detergents. DSC, a native assay, works equally well for modified proteins such as antibody…

Long Term Stability Analysis of Monoclonal Antibodies

Long Term Stability Analysis of Monoclonal Antibodies Overview Characterization of biopharmaceuticals during all development phases is critical to the candidate selection process and the ongoing production of the active material. Some recent efforts to achieve patient self-administration has required high API concentrations (100-300 mg/mL). Development concerns for the high concentration formulations are denaturation, aggregation…

Stability Testing of Energetic Materials by Isothermal Microcalorimetry

Stability Testing of Energetic Materials by Isothermal Microcalorimetry Overview This webinar introduces the use of isothermal microcalorimetry for stability measurement of energetic materials. Energetic materials refer to materials, chemicals and substances which exhibit a risk for self-decomposition associated with self-heating ultimately resulting in run-way reactions. Such materials include propellants, percarbonates and peroxides, and these…

Dile Holton, Ph.D.: Characterization of Drug Binding Activity and Biopharmaceutical Stability This webinar is focused on enthalpy screening, a new and recently published ITC technique that is showing promise for rapidly and accurately characterizing the binding enthalpy of new drugs or biotherapeutics. Rapid and accurate characterization of biopharmaceuticals is essential for the early selection of…

In Search of Calorimetric Answers to Events In Self Assemblies

In Search of Calorimetric Answers to Events In Self Assemblies In this TA Webinar, Professor Nand Kishore discusses how to best discover and interpret protein folding, ligand binding, aggregation and molecular partitioning in self assemblies. Isothermal titration (ITC) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) are powerful tools for thermodynamic characterization of protein folding intermediates, drug-protein…

Measuring Thermodynamic Parameters in the Drug Development Process

Measuring Thermodynamic Parameters in the Drug Development Process Is there a benefit to measuring thermodynamic parameters in the drug development process? In this TA Instruments Webinar, Dr. John E. Ladbury discusses Thermodynamic Parameterization of protein-ligand interaction, not only provides quantification of the affinity of an interaction, but also the underlying changes in enthalpy and entropy.…
