Back in the late 1990s, one of my earliest research projects involved using capillary electrophoresis (CE) to profile wheat proteins. This experience laid the foundation for my ongoing interest and expertise in this powerful analytical technique. But what exactly is CE, and why is it so crucial in today's biopharma industry?
What is Capillary Electrophoresis (CE)?
CE, short for capillary electrophoresis, is a versatile technique used to separate charged molecules. Unlike many other separation methods, CE encompasses several variations, each tailored to specific types of molecules and analytical needs. Its ability to efficiently separate proteins, oligonucleotides, RNA, and DNA makes it indispensable in the biopharma sector.
The Role of CE in Biopharma
Today, CE is predominantly used in the biopharma industry to address a wide range of analytical questions. Whether it's characterizing protein isoforms, analyzing oligonucleotides, or assessing RNA and DNA integrity, CE provides precise and reliable results. Its applications are far-reaching, contributing to both research and quality control processes.
Educational Resources on CE
Recently, I had the opportunity to help organize and run a series of presentations that delve into the main techniques and applications of CE. These on-demand talks cover the theoretical aspects and practical uses of CE in biopharma, providing valuable insights for both newcomers and seasoned professionals. For those interested in expanding their understanding of CE, I encourage you to explore these educational presentations.
