BioProcess International Spotlight: Nickolas Brings, MBA, Biogen Idec

Leading up to next week's BioProcess International Conference & Exhibiton, we'll be featuring a few of the speakers who will be joining us.  Did you know that Nickolas Brings, MBA, Process Engineer, Global Engineering and Facilities, Biogen Idec is related to Declaration of Independence signer John Hancock?  He will also be presenting the new case study  Exploiting Online Refractometry for Improved Ultrafiltration Development and Manufacturing Engineering Operation Control next Thursday, October 11.

BioProcess International will take place October 8-12 in Providence, Rhode Island.  For more information on this program featuring over 180+ speakers, download the agenda here.  Would you like to join us?  Register today.

Featured Session: Exploiting Online Refractometry for Improved Ultrafiltration Development and Manufacturing Engineering Operation Control
Featured Speaker: Nickolas Brings, MBA, Process Engineer, Global Engineering and Facilities, Biogen Idec
About the Session: Accurate targeting of high protein concentration Drug Product formulations has become a challenge within biological manufacturing arenas via traditional absorbance methods and process control techniques. The work presented here will demonstrate the application of inline refractometry to provide real-time concentration measurements for enhanced ultrafiltration process monitoring and control. Data will be presented from pilot and clinical manufacturing systems. In summary, inline probes demonstrated >96% concentration accuracy up to 150g/L.  Additional applications for inline refractometry will be discussed for Biologics processing.
