Charge Heterogeneity Analysis of Rituximab Innovator and Biosimilar Monoclonal Antibodies

25 Jan 2018

Recombinant monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are important biotherapeutics with a wide range of diagnostic and clinical applications. Recently, biosimilar products are increasing in popularity in biopharmaceuticals. This study performs high-resolution separation of charge variants of innovator and biosimilar rituximab using an Agilent 1260 Infinity Bio-inert Quaternary LC, biocolumns, and an Agilent OpenLAB ChemStation Software tool.

Agilent 1260 Infinity II Bio-Inert LC System

Agilent Technologies

The 1260 Infinity II Bio-Inert LC is a dedicated solution for analysis of large biomolecules in biological samples, including monoclonal antibody (mAb) and protein analysis. Metal-free components in the sample flow path and the absence of iron and steel in solvent delivery lines ensure the integrity of your biomolecules, minimize unwanted surface interactions, and increase column lifetime.
