Emerging Roles for Mass Spectrometry in Characterizing Biopharmaceuticals

This whitepaper provides an overview of roles for mass spectrometry in biopharmaceutical characterization, briefly reviews relevant steps and sub-systems in mass spectrometry, and then covers some of the more significant advances as they pertain to analysis of biopharmaceuticals. These advances benefit biopharmaceutical laboratories by offering faster, more complete and more confident analyses than are possible with more traditional chemistry-based analyses or with earlier mass spectrometry systems.
