Event Overview:

Monitoring protein concentration is an essential part of any bioprocess, and as new techniques are developed, there are more avenues and options to track this in real-time. Conventional UV-VIS spectroscopy is the most common method of protein monitoring and analysis, but as Raman spectroscopy becomes more affordable and democratized, it offers another perspective of the same analytes. This talk will investigate the benefits and limitations of both UV-VIS and Raman spectroscopy approaches to tracking protein in a bioreactor setting, including considerations around technical implementation, cost effectiveness, and post-processing techniques.

Key Learning Objectives:

• Understand the differences between UV-VIS and Raman spectroscopy to monitor proteins
• Learn where the largest technical hurdles exist in real-world implementation
• Discover broadband processing techniques to deconvolute and pull-out relevant information

Who Should Attend:

• Anyone working with bioprocesses or pharmaceutical manufacturing
• Researchers looking to marry traditionally-separated methodologies
