Creating superior biologics and therapies through better analytics

Our mass spectrometry services can help you optimize the CMC process and monitor product and process-related proteins.

Analytical services

Protein analysis

Host cell protein analysis

The presence of HCPs and added residuals - such as enzymes - may impact the safety and efficiency of your product. We can help you identify and quantify individual process-related impurities in the downstream process. This gives you a detailed risk assessment and enables efficient elimination of these proteins.

host cell protein

Product characterization

Combing the product characterization with an analysis of the process-related impurities gives a more thorough understanding of your molecule. This enables optimization of the process design to ensure the drug product achieves the required safety, purity, and potency attributes.

Biologic drugs

Enables characterization of recombinant
proteins and mAbs

Advanced therapies

Helps you understand impurities in complex products like cell, gene, and bacteriophage treatments

Vaccines

Use for analysis of live attenuated or inactivated
virus and VLP-based products

What clients say

Aicuris logo
"Alphalyse provided a very well-designed and executed HCP analysis, fruitful technical discussions, and flexibility in terms of writing the report."

Thore Schmedt, Associate Director
AiCuris Anti-infective Cures AG, Germany
SSI logo
"Alphalyse's HCP analysis saved us the development of an ELISA assay that may not have worked anyway. The HCP team explained test results competently and was very open to discussing the method capabilities."

Max Kristiansen, MSc, Special Consultant Assay Development
Statens Serum Institut (SSI), Denmark
Targovax logo
"They handled the project professionally and rapidly, and the report was very well written, clearly explaining the findings."

Kristiina Hyvärinen, Director QC, viral products
Targovax ASA, Finland
Y-mAbs logo
"We enjoy collaborating with Alphalyse as part of our optimization of manufacturing processes. Not only do we gain access to their hands, but we also get to pick their brains for mass spectrometry knowledge."

Torben Lund-Hansen, PhD, SVP
Head of Technical Operations

Y-mAbs Therapeutics Inc., USA
Savara logo
"Using the Alphalyse LC-MS/MS coverage method in HCP ELISA selection, we estimate a savings of approximately $1M and, likely, one year of development time."

Lars Skriver
Senior Science Officer

SAVARA Aps, Denmark
Actinobac Biomed Inc logo
"The FDA approved our IND! They accepted the MS data without also requesting the standard HCP-ELISA immunoassay."

Scott Kachlany, founder
Actinobac Biomed Inc.
GTP Bioways logo
"We are very pleased with the work of Alphalyse because they provide us with a high-quality antibody characterization service. Most importantly, we can ship them hundreds of samples at once and always receive the analytic results shortly after. "

Head of CMC, C&GT Division
GTP Bioways, France
