    Advanced AAV Analytics

    CD-MS methods offer comprehensive AAV analytics, including:

    ✵    Assessments of empty, partial, and full capsid ratios

    ✵    Analysis of viral protein ratios

    ✵    DNA packaging analysis

    Applicable to a variety of samples:

    ✵    Upstream cell lysates

    ✵    Purified downstream products

  • Oligonucleotide Analysis

    Nucleotide Analysis

    High-resolution mass and charge measurements can analyze:

    ✵   mRNA

    ✵   Plasmids

    ✵   Single-stranded DNA (ssDNA)

    ✵   Double-stranded DNA (dsDNA)

    ✵   DNA nanostructures

    Capable of detecting:

    ✵    Genome truncations

    ✵    Structural analysis

  • VLPS and Oncolytic Viruses

    VLPs and Oncolytic Viruses

    CD-MS analysis can:

    ✵   Resolve assembly intermediates

    ✵   Quantify intact assembly products of Virus-Like Particles (VLPs)

    Leveraging CD-MS results allows researchers to:

    ✵   Optimize VLP methods for uniform assembly of end product structures

    Broad mass range of CD-MS enables:

    ✵   Assessment of empty/full ratios in large viral vectors

  • CD-MS Vaccines

    Vaccines

    CD-MS assays are developed for:

    ✵  Characterizing the structure and stoichiometry of antigen in drug product

    ✵  Probing antibody binding affinity to target antigen

    ✵  Investigating the stability of vaccine antigens from pre-formulation to final products

    Advantages of CD-MS include:

    ✵   High-throughput capabilities

    ✵   Broad scan range for effective analysis of complex mixtures

  • Non-Viral Nanoparticles

    Non-Viral Nanoparticles

    Mass and charge measurements offer insights into:

    ✵    Density of non-viral nanoparticles

    ✵    Polydispersity of non-viral nanoparticles

    Mass analysis can be used to:

    ✵    Quantify particle conjugation

    ✵    Assess loading effectiveness
