Rapid Release Testing with Blazar^® CHO AOF

WEBINAR

Innovative molecular methods will allow mAbs manufacturers to deliver critical therapeutic agents to patients faster. The Blazar^® CHO AOF virus panel is a powerful tool to accelerate bulk harvest testing with the potential to replace slower culture-based in vitro virus detection methods. It is a degenerate PCR-based assay for the broad detection of adventitious agents in materials grown with animal origin-free (AOF) media and reagents. A degenerate primer approach allows for broader coverage than traditional PCR. Blazar^® degenerate primers are designed to target specific viral risks while detecting related viral variants and newly emerging viruses.

In this webinar, we will introduce the Blazar^® CHO AOF assay and discuss:

• Application of a degenerate PCR-based method to accelerate bulk harvest testing
• Virus coverage of the assay
• Comparability to traditional methods of virus testing, including faster time to results
