Guest presenter - Prof. Dr. John Carpenter, University of Colorado

Counting and sizing of subvisible particles in therapeutic protein formulations are critically important activities for product development and quality assurance. Such characterization can be challenging for products in prefilled syringes in which silicone oil droplets can be at high concentration and interfere with analysis of protein particles. Similarly, we have recently found that nanobubbles that form upon reconstitution of lyophilized protein formulations can dominate in particle analyses. Fortunately, these challenges can be overcome by using the resonance mass measurement technique available with the Archimedes system.

In this presentation, Prof. Carpenter presents case studies which demonstrate the value of this approach for products in prefilled syringes and in model studies of silicone oil effects on protein aggregation. New data documenting the presence and stability of nanobubbles in reconstituted lyophilized formulations will also be highlighted.
