Current Issues in Ligand Binding Assay Bioanalysis

Description

Published March 2016

ISBN: 978-1-910420-19-5

Ligand-binding assays are a key tool in the bioanalysis of biologics, and so are widely used throughout the development of biotherapeutics. The chapters of this book cover the most exciting and challenging areas of application with a focus on problem solving, particularly complex or advanced analyses, and areas of debate. Applications such as antibody–drug conjugates, biosimilars and blood genotying are discussed, as well as challenges relating to cross-validation with LC-MS/MS methods, calibration curves, cut-point determination, automation, immunogenicity and interference. The current regulatory status is described, as well as emerging novel technologies.
