Achieve faster GLP-1 amino acid analysis with rapid UPLC technology
As demand for glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) therapies continues to rise, ensuring they meet strict regulatory standards while delivering fast, reliable results is more important than ever. Traditional amino acid analysis (AAA) workflows provide valuable quantitative insight into bioprocess conditions but can be time-intensive and operationally complex.
In this SelectScience® webinar, biologic drug screening and protein analysis experts, Dr. Duanduan Han and Dr. Tim Anderson will present a microwave-assisted UPLC approach that accelerates hydrolysis, labeling, and identification of GLP-1 analogs using the Waters AccQ·Tag Ultra Chemistry Kit. They will also discuss how this approach simplifies amino acid analysis to significantly reduce turnaround time, whilst maintaining accuracy and reproducibility.
Plus, they will share how this microwave-assisted UPLC approach can be seamlessly integrated into an Empower™ Chromatography Data System (CDS) workflow to support efficient data processing and compliance.
Register today to learn how to enhance productivity, improve consistency, and meet the growing demands of GLP-1 development and manufacturing.
