Five Reasons to Outsource API Procurement (Mar 2023)
March 14th 2023Optimizing API Procurement. Supply chain woes existed long before the pandemic, and not many scientists want to spend time sourcing ingredients. There is a way to ensure you get the right active pharmaceutical ingredients, at the right cost, with the right plan to scale: partnering with an API procurement and supply chain specialist.
DyadPalladate™ pre-catalysts: Cross-coupling made simple
March 2nd 2023This technical brief will start by outlining the importance of cross-coupling catalysts in the industry. It will then weigh up the benefits of existing in situ and pre-formed catalysts. The remainder of the technical brief introduces Johnson Matthey’s DyadPalladateTM pre-catalysts as a cost-effective and greener alternative to traditional in situ systems.
Sustained Release Gel Formulation
March 2nd 2023A long-acting injectable improves the patient’s experience by only requiring a once weekly, or monthly injection as opposed to a daily dosing regimen. The gel depot formulation is simple to manufacture, and easy to tune to the desired release duration and dose.

Alcami Grows Contract Manufacturing and Laboratory Business 20% With Waters Partnership
February 20th 2023Read a compelling, detailed Case Study about how an innovation partnership with Waters Corporation enhanced Alcami’s capacity, efficiency, and compliance-readiness for their pharmaceutical manufacturing and analytical services to differentiate their offerings and drive business growth.
New Technology Advances Biopharma Chromatography Productivity (Feb 2023)
February 16th 2023Biologics manufacturers have been successful boosting yields and increasing throughput in upstream mAbs production. Those increased volumes create a new challenge: scaling downstream process chromatography to be as productive. This Avantor white paper details how technologies such as a novel protein A chromatography resin and the use of additives can improve efficiencies in this complex process step. The white paper also explores the benefits of expanding single-use and continuous processing systems to further streamline downstream production and improve cost profiles.
Overcoming The Challenges of Pediatric Formulation
February 15th 2023Pediatric formulations have become increasingly important as the healthcare field recognizes the huge impact that strict patient adherence can have on a treatment’s efficacy. But to overcome the challenges of adherence in children, drug developers need to consider innovative new dosage forms that can deliver flexible and convenient medications for young patients.
Improving mAbs Impurity Clearance Through Use of Selective Additives (Feb 2023)
February 7th 2023Developing more effective chromatography resins for mAbs downstream processing is important ⏤ but it's not the only way to improve impurity clearance. In this study of the use of additives to enhance resin performance, two mAbs chromatography resins were examined. Both were used for a capture step, and additives were screened to reduce the nonspecific binding of impurities. The goal of the study was to optimize chromatography steps and thus increase the capacity and removal of impurities.
Qualtrak Real-Time PCR and Digital PCR Ecosystem for Streamlined Biologics Development
January 25th 2023Developing and manufacturing biologics requires compliant technologies and methods that provide excellent accuracy, consistency, and quality control (QC) with continuous automation potential to ensure the best possible product is delivered in the right time frame. PCR methods that enable quantification of target nucleic acid sequences—namely quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) and digital PCR (dPCR)—have become core technologies for delivering high-quality results in a range of applications throughout biologics development and biomanufacturing. qPCR and dPCR methods are the gold standards for sensitive, specific detection and quantification of nucleic acid targets, which are useful for QC testing a wide variety of biologic characteristics.
