Stopping Bad Samples at the Door: Mass Photometry for Cryo‑EM Success

Overview:

Controlling sample heterogeneity is crucial for successful structure determination, yet many traditional analytical methods are costly, slow, or lack sufficient resolution. This webinar highlights how mass photometry outperforms techniques like SEC and introduces the MyMass™ system for rapid sample quality checks before advanced analyses.

  • London / UK: 3:30 pm (BST)
  • Central Europe 4:30 pm (CEST)

Speakers:

  • Dr. Mathias Gschell, Head of Cryo-EM at BIMOVIS GmbH 
  • Dr. Salma Jalal, Market Development Manager at Refeyn

You'll gain valuable insights into:

  • How the importance of sample preparation is often underestimated – despite being (usually) the cheapest and fastest step in the procedure, it has the biggest impact on an experiment’s outcome.
  • Mass photometry’s resolution, sample requirements, and ease of use – which make it ideal for sample qualification and selection prior to structure determination.
  • How mass photometry complements SEC and other biophysical techniques, offering unique strengths in sensitivity, speed, and solution-state analysis.

This webinar is designed for:

  • Researchers and scientists in biopharma, proteomics, and analytical chemistry

  • Lab managers and process engineers seeking faster, label-free analysis

  • Professionals working on protein characterization, viral vector quantification, or process optimization
