This webinar focuses on the use and application of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) for structure and stability investigations of biopharmaceuticals, with an emphasis on monoclonal antibodies, in both early development and late stage products.

Case studies from biopharma will be presented, to demonstrate how DSC analysis is used in formulation development, stability, or biocomparability studies. Using simple analysis of transition temperatures (Tm) forTm-based stability ranking, to complex analysis including identification of individual structural domain transitions, DSC is versatile, and allows biopharmaceutical development at a faster development pace.
