Biopharmaceutical Impurities Analysis Service
In the development and manufacturing of biopharmaceutical products such as therapeutic proteins, vaccines, and gene therapy vectors, the introduction of various impurities is inevitable. These impurities are generally classified into two categories: product-related impurities and process-related impurities. Common examples include degradation products, aggregates, host cell residues, and trace metal contaminants. Even at low concentrations, these impurities can impact product safety, efficacy, and stability. Therefore, a comprehensive Biopharmaceutical Impurities Analysis is essential to ensure product quality, meet regulatory requirements, and enable successful commercialization.
As a CRO specialized in mass spectrometry and multi-platform bioanalysis, MtoZ Biolabs offers a robust Biopharmaceutical Impurities Analysis Service powered by high-resolution mass spectrometry, liquid chromatography, gel electrophoresis, and other advanced platforms. Our services are tailored to help clients identify and characterize impurities in a wide range of biopharmaceutical products, mitigate risk, and improve quality.
Services at MtoZ Biolabs
Our biopharmaceutical impurities analysis service is categorized by analytical platforms and the origin of impurities. We provide, but are not limited to, the following offerings:
Analysis Workflow
The biopharmaceutical impurities analysis service at MtoZ Biolabs follows a standardized five-step workflow:
1. Project Planning: We design customized analytical strategies based on sample characteristics and regulatory requirements.
2. Sample Processing: This includes pre-treatment, enrichment, and buffer exchange to ensure samples are ready for analysis.
3. Platform Analysis: Multi-platform analysis is conducted using LC-MS/MS, HPLC, electrophoresis, and more.
4. Data Analysis: Impurities are qualitatively and quantitatively evaluated in terms of type, concentration, and distribution.
5. Data Delivery: We provide complete data packages including structural information, chromatograms, and method parameters.
Service Advantages
1. Multi-Platform Integration
Our biopharmaceutical impurities analysis service integrates mass spectrometry, chromatography, and electrophoresis to meet diverse impurity analysis needs across protein, peptide, nucleic acid, and viral vector products.
2. Extensive Experience
With deep expertise in analyzing impurities in recombinant proteins, vaccines, antibody drugs, and gene therapy vectors, MtoZ Biolabs offers expert consultation and compliance guidance.
3. Standardized Protocols
All steps follow GLP-compliant procedures with traceable and validated methods, ensuring reliable data suitable for quality control and regulatory submissions.
4. Customized Solutions
We provide highly personalized services based on the expression system (e.g., CHO, HEK293, E. coli), molecular type (e.g., protein, peptide, mRNA, AAV), and development stage (discovery, pilot, or commercial). For complex impurity issues that cannot be resolved with routine methods, we offer method development and optimization using combined mass spectrometry and chromatography platforms to support full-spectrum impurity profiling and structural elucidation.
5. Transparent Pricing
Our pricing model is one-time-charge only—no hidden fees or additional costs.
Applications
MtoZ Biolabs’ biopharmaceutical impurities analysis service can be applied in:
1. IND/BLA submission documentation
2. Quality control in process development and optimization
3. Batch consistency and stability studies
4. Biosimilar comparative analysis
5. Release testing for drug substance and final products
6. Pharmacopoeial compliance verification
FAQs
Q1: Can you detect trace-level impurities?
A1: Yes. Our high-sensitivity platforms, such as LC-MS/MS and ICP-MS, enable accurate detection at sub-ppb levels, making them suitable for quantifying trace impurities in high-purity biopharmaceuticals.
Q2: Are your results suitable for regulatory submissions?
A2: Absolutely. Our workflows comply with GLP standards, and the data we deliver is complete, traceable, and reproducible—meeting the requirements for regulatory filing and third-party audits.
Sample Submission Suggestions
We accept a broad range of sample types, including but not limited to:
1. Drug substance or final formulations of recombinant proteins, antibodies, and fusion proteins
2. Peptide therapeutics
3. mRNA/LNP formulations, siRNA, oligonucleotides
4. AAV and other viral vectors
5. Buffers, media, and expression system samples
Samples should be shipped under cold-chain conditions with clearly labeled information (e.g., concentration, buffer system). For detailed sample preparation and shipping guidelines, please contact us directly.
