Analyzing Carbohydrates on Therapeutic Glycoproteins
Spectroscopy E-Books
A very important component of the characterization of therapeutic proteins is the analysis of the carbohydrate structures that are attached to them. Those carbohydrates play an important role in ensuring the safety and efficacy of these drugs, and are an important consideration when comparing a candidate biosimilar drug to its reference product. For advice on this topic,

Quantifying Microplastics and Anthropogenic Particles in Marine and Aquatic Environments
January 30th 2025Spectroscopy recently sat down with Elise Granek, Susanne Brander, and Summer Traylor to discuss their recent study quantifying microplastics (MPs) and anthropogenic particles (APs) in the edible tissues of black rockfish, lingcod, Chinook salmon, Pacific herring, Pacific lamprey, and pink shrimp.
NIR Spectroscopy with AI Proves to be a Powerful Combination for Tea Classification
January 29th 2025A team of researchers from Nankai University has developed an advanced method to classify tea types using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and artificial intelligence (AI). Their approach, involves a fine-tuned 1DResNet model, outperforms traditional methods, and offers an accurate, non-destructive, and efficient classification solution for the tea industry.
