The Biologics Characterization and Discovery Kit Includes:

  • Executive Summary
  • Tech Note: A Unified Workflow for Monoclonal Antibody Charge Heterogeneity Purity, and Molecular Weight Analyses
  • Webinar: Biologics Characterization and Discovery by CESI-MS
  • Tech Note: CESI-MS Comparison of Tryptic Digests from Different Monoclonal Antibodies in an Assessment of Biosimilarity
  • Tech Note: Structural Characterization of ADCs by a Combination of Intact, Middle-up, and Bottom-up Approaches using CESI-MS

A Unified Workflow for Monoclonal Antibody Charge Heterogeneity Purity, and Molecular Weight Analyses
Discover how combining the unique separation capabilities of capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) with the advantages of an MS-based detector provide high-resolution structural information and accurate molecular weight information. Using CESI-MS and stand-alone CE functionality of the CESI 8000 Plus system, researchers demonstrate powerful methods to characterize intact and reduced IgG forms.

CESI-MS Comparison of Tryptic Digests from Different Monoclonal Antibodies in an Assessment of Biosimilarity
Includes a summary of work recently published by the research group LSMIS at the University of Strasbourg. It focuses on how CESI-MS can be used to characterize and compare a marketed reference mAb with other biosimilar candidates. A CESI-MS protocol for biosimilarity studies of mAbs has been developed which highlights 100% amino acid sequence coverage & PTM “hot spot” mapping and ID.

Structural Characterization of Antibody-Drug Conjugates (ADCs) by a Combination of Intact, Middle-up and Bottom-up Approaches using CESI-MS
This tech note also summarizes work recently published by the research group at LSMIS. In this tech note, discover how CESI-MS can be used to characterize a gold standard cysteine-linked ADC, brentuximab vedotin. Want to learn more about highlighting DAR calculation under native conditions; drug distribution, drug location, 100% coverage and PTMs? It’s all here.

3 reasons ZT Scan DIA is changing the game in metabolomics

For years, metabolomics researchers have faced a frustrating reality: modern high-resolution mass spectrometers can detect tens of thousands of molecular features, yet only a fraction can be confidently identified. The challenge is no longer finding molecules. It is generating the high-quality MS/MS data needed to confidently assign structures and extract meaningful biological insights.

ADC analytics FAQs: Answering the most common questions about ADC characterization

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) have emerged as one of the fastest-growing classes of biotherapeutics, combining the targeting specificity of monoclonal antibodies with the potency of cytotoxic payloads. However, this unique architecture also introduces significant analytical complexity. From drug-to-antibody ratio (DAR) distributions and charge variants to conjugation sites and structural modifications, ADCs present multiple, interconnected sources of heterogeneity that must be understood to ensure product quality and performance.

Sterile but toxic: Cereulide detection in food matrices

In a recent webinar, Ming Gao, Ph.D., Senior Research Chemist at Mérieux NutriSciences, explored the growing challenge of cereulide contamination in food products and the analytical strategies needed to detect this heat-stable toxin at trace levels. The session examined how LC-MS/MS can help laboratories overcome the limitations of traditional microbiological screening and meet emerging regulatory requirements.
