Multi-angle light scattering as a process analytical technology measuring real-time molecular weight for downstream process control.
MAbs 2018 October
For many protein therapeutics including monoclonal antibodies, aggregate removal process can be complex and challenging. We evaluated two different process analytical technology (PAT) applications that couple a purification unit performing preparative hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) to a multi-angle light scattering (MALS) system. Using first principle measurements, the MALS detector calculates weight-average molar mass, Mw and can control aggregate levels in purification. The first application uses an in-line MALS to send start/stop fractionation trigger signals directly to the purification unit when preset Mw criteria are met or unmet. This occurs in real-time and eliminates the need for analysis after purification. The second application uses on-line ultra-high performance size-exclusion liquid chromatography to sample from the purification stream, separating the mAb species and confirming their Mw using a µMALS detector. The percent dimer (1.5%) determined by the on-line method is in agreement with the data from the in-line application (Mw increase of approximately 2750 Da). The novel HIC-MALS systems demonstrated here can be used as a powerful tool for real-time aggregate monitoring and control during biologics purification enabling future real time release of biotherapeutics.
