Dile Holton, Ph.D.: Characterization of Drug Binding Activity and Biopharmaceutical Stability

Dile Holton, Ph.D.: Characterization of Drug Binding Activity and Biopharmaceutical Stability This webinar is focused on enthalpy screening, a new and recently published ITC technique that is showing promise for rapidly and accurately characterizing the binding enthalpy of new drugs or biotherapeutics. Rapid and accurate characterization of biopharmaceuticals is essential for the early selection of…

In Search of Calorimetric Answers to Events In Self Assemblies

In this TA Webinar, Professor Nand Kishore discusses how to best discover and interpret protein folding, ligand binding, aggregation and molecular partitioning in self assemblies. Tribology complements rheology, providing information on solid-solid interactions that adds insight to the bulk fluid measurements of rheology. Tribology is especially concerned with quantifying the coefficient of friction as a…

Thermodynamic Rules To Achieve High Binding Affinity & Selectivity

High affinity and selectivity are two essential properties of drug molecules. Since the binding affinity is determined by the sum of enthalpic and entropic contributions, extremely high affinity necessitates optimization of both contributions to binding. An efficient approach requires accurate prediction of the contributions of specific interactions and chemical functionalities to the enthalpy and entropy…
