 Therapeutic proteins make up a rapidly growing segment of global pharmaceutical production. These complex molecules require accurate characterization of product purity, heterogeneity and identity. This includes data regarding their stability, shelf life and related manufacturing processes.

Automated and Quantitative Analysis of Biologics

The PA 800 plus Pharmaceutical Analysis System* was designed in collaboration with biopharmaceutical development and QC groups. This platform provides analysts with robust and easy-to-use characterization, integrating quantitative, qualitative and automated solutions for protein purity, charge isoform distribution and glycan analysis. During the design of the PA 800 plus, Beckman Coulter emphasized assay portability, enhancing the overall system utility in multi-user, multi-instrument facilities.
