Figure 1. The demand for biopharmaceutical products is increasing rapidly; however, development timelines of about 12 years leave little time for return on investment before a patent expires. Fast process development is therefore crucial to speed up the market entrance of new biopharmaceuticals. Until recently, chromatographic process development was restricted to a sequential regime. However, new innovative methods have been developed to perform up to 96 parallel chromatographic experiments on a Tecan Freedom EVO® robotic workstation (pictured, right), allowing for…
