Protein Sciences

Uniting Drug Development Expertise with Antibody & Protein Production Services

LC-MS Services

Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) Analysis

Our cutting-edge LC-MS services enable precise molecular analysis, providing you with invaluable insights into your biologics.

 

  • Detailed characterization of bispecific antibodies (bsAbs) by intact mass analysis
  • HTP intact mass analysis for protein confirmation and quick glycan analysis (96-well plate)
  • Detailed peptide mapping for sequence coverage, post-translational modifications (PTMs), and sequence variant analysis
  • Disulfide mapping analysis to determine unknown disulfide linkage
  • N-glycan analysis by LC-Fluorescence-MS/MS for complex glycosylation

Our LC-MS services enable precise molecular analysis, providing you with invaluable insights into your biologics.
