Comparing analytical approaches for AAV characterization (2026)
AAV sample characterization is a critical step in research, development and manufacturing processes of gene therapies involving these viral vectors (Figure 1). There are several analytical approaches available to assess critical quality attributes (CQAs) for AAV samples, such as capsid content (empty/full ratios) and titer.
Making sense of mass photometry measurements (2025)
Mass photometry is a novel way to measure the mass of biomolecules. It works by quantifying the light scattered by an individual molecule in solution, which is directly proportional to the molecule’s mass [1], [2] (read more about how mass photometry works).
