Effects of ionizable and non-ionizable excipients on lyophilized RNA formulations using FTIR-ATR technology
There are ongoing attempts to improve the storage stability of mRNA vaccines by converting them to solid forms using various drying methods. Lyophilization is one such method and has the potential to stabilize mRNA, but there are few reports that describe the interactions of lyophilized mRNA with excipients (e.g., sugars, salts, and lipids) in the solid state. However, these methods require reconstitution and samples cannot be analyzed directly in the solid-state form.
This application note describes how the PerkinElmer Spectrum Two™ FTIR Spectrometer with attenuated total reflectance accessory (ATR-FTIR) is used to probe the interactions of RNA with various excipients in lyophilized solid samples, suggesting the utility of the method in developing stable solid mRNA formulations.
Routine measurements of adhesives using ATR-FTIR spectroscopy
Cyanoacrylate adhesives also known as ‘superglues’ are single-component reactive adhesives. They cure with the small amount of moisture on the surface of the components and very quickly bond on a variety of substances. FTIR spectroscopy is used extensively within the adhesives industry for research, identification, and troubleshooting. This application note describes experiments performed on pressure sensitive, cyanoacrylates, and water-based adhesives using PerkinElmer Spectrum Two™ FT-IR Spectrometer.
