March 3, 2017 - Ligand Binding Assays (LBAs) used for large molecule drug development often utilize proteins conjugated to various tags. To ensure that these conjugated protein reagents perform consistently over time and provide high quality data, each lot of conjugated material should be characterized functionally and biophysically. This application note, contributed by Justin Low et al. at Genentech, discusses the advantages of SEC-MALS for this application and the impact of aggregated reagents on assays used to detect anti-drug antibodies.

October 18, 2016 - If you were watching the Today Show on Monday, October 17, 2016 you would have seen at least one segment not related to politics. In fact, “Cutting Edge Women”, is a regular part of the Today Show. As you might guess, it’s about influential women and this episode featured Anne Wojcicki, the founder and CEO of 23andMe, a genetic testing company in the Bay Area of California. 23andMe is also of greater interest to Wyatt Technology because Anne Wojciki’s company is a customer of our technology.
