Optimising AAV capsid purification through improved analytics

Drug Discovery World

This helps ensure a high concentration of loaded capsids and adequate removal of impurities, such as host cell proteins and DNA. In AAV therapeutics, empty capsids are those that are not packaged with the therapeutic DNA. Robustness: to be able to tolerate matrix effects (type of buffer, residual contaminants, ionic strength, etc.)
