Discover the ProteoAnalyzer System: Automated Protein Analysis Parallel to None

The Agilent ProteoAnalyzer system is a parallel capillary electrophoresis instrument that automates the capillary electrophoresis-sodium dodecyl sulfate (CE-SDS) analysis of reduced and non-reduced protein samples. Able to separate 12 samples in as little as 30 minutes, this system is designed to eliminate the laborious process of SDS-PAGE gel preparation, staining/destaining, and analysis so you can focus on results. The ProteoAnalyzer system separates proteins from 10 to 240 kDa allowing for the analysis of proteins over a wide range of sizes in a single run. The discrete individual capillaries are rejuvenated between every separation allowing for the analysis of diverse samples including monoclonal antibodies, biosimilars, protein purification fractions, and crude lysates.

Comprehensive Characterization of Biomolecules Using LC-MS: From Monoclonal Antibodies to Synthetic Oligonucleotides

In this presentation, we will explore advanced techniques for the LC-MS characterization of biomolecules, including monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), GLP-1 agonists, and synthetic oligonucleotides. We will focus on utilizing LC-MS mass spectrometry for rapid and automated detection of these complex biomolecules. By extending to high-resolution mass spectrometry like the Agilent 6545XT AdvanceBio LC/Q-TOF system with microdroplet technology, we can provide comprehensive insights into the structure and function of these complex biomolecules.

Expert Exchange: Ask the Panel

This is your opportunity to engage directly with each presenter. Questions can be submitted ahead of time, during registration, or can be asked in-person. This open forum is designed to foster an in-depth, collaborative exchange—providing a unique space to discuss challenges, explore ideas, and gain insights directly from our expert panel.

11:45 a.m - 12:00 p.m - Closing Remarks

**After the conclusion of the seminar, we encourage you all to grab a bite to eat and continue networking with the panel as well as other attendees**

Hosted at Toronto's MaRS Discovery District, this seminar will take place in Conference Room 3 (CR3) located at 101 College Street. If you are driving to this event, please note there are two parking garages connected to the MaRS Centre. The parking garage is managed by IMPARK (aka Reef Parking) and can be accessed either from 218 Elizabeth Street (East Tower) or 661 University Avenue (West Tower). Parking payment is made using the license plate registration at any of the meters located in the garage. This method removes the need to display payment receipt on the dashboard.
