CTech™ SoloVPE® Protein A280

The CTech™ SoloVPE® System can accurately measure a wide range of concentrations without any dilution or baseline correction and with reliable and reproducible results.

The Most Direct Measurement for Proteins

Validate your measurements with confidence

Measurement of protein concentrations using traditional UV-Vis spectroscopy is limited to a single pathlength and a single absorbance value per measurement. To bring the sample detection into the linear (dynamic) range, the user is forced to perform dilutions on the samples with time-consuming and labor-intensive steps.

Challenges

  • Samples that are viscous, do not dissolve easily, foam up, or create air bubbles, interfere with analysis. 
  • Error-prone dilution and sample handling steps are later followed by calculations and subsequent data interpretation.

Slope Spectroscopy manipulates Beer-Lambert’s law, allowing the System to accurately vary the absorbance with the change in pathlength. With near-perfect linear regression, the SoloVPE System can accurately measure a wide range of concentrations without any dilution or baseline correction and with reliable and reproducible results.

The SoloVPE Solution

  • Variable pathlength technology allows the direct measurement of proteins, including monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), which absorb light at 280 nm due to aromatic amino acids (primarily L-tyrosine and L-tryptophan). 
  • The System creates a minimum of five and up to 10 absorbance data points, generating a slope with regression R2 values of ≥0.999.
  •   System-to-system consistency and the easy and fast validation and implementation.

The SoloVPE has validated over 50 commercial drug products.
