The Complexities of SV Analytical Ultracentrifugation: AAVs are not Simple, Binary Systems
Lake Paul, PhD
BioAnalysis, LLC
September 2020
As SV-AUC becomes the go-to method for quantitation and characterization of AAV, caution must be taken during the experimental design and analysis. Dr. Paul presents approaches to correctly analyzing AAV systems, explains how to apply AUC in a cGMP environment and how to develop proper experimental design for AAV systems and extracting the correct information.

Characterizing Viruses: From Deadly Pathogens to the Workhorses of Gene Therapy
Akash Bhattacharya, PhD
Beckman Coulter Life Sciences
July 2020
Gain a better understanding of AUC in the biophysical characterization of viral drug targets and learn how AUC can be used to measure equilibrium binding affinities in protein interactions, the quality control challenges in therapeutic AAV production, techniques used to characterize the AAV capsid, advantages of native state analyses and quantifying full:empty:partial AAV ratios.

Measuring Molecular Interactions by Multi-Wavelength AUC
Borries Demeler, PhD
University of Lethbridge, Alberta

AUC for Structural Analysis - Proteins and Macromolecular Complexes
Andrew Herr, PhD
Cincinnati Children's Hospital
August 2015
In this webinar, Dr. Herr provides an overview of Analytical Ultracentrifugation (AUC) as a complementary technique for structural analysis of proteins and macromolecular complexes.
