The BioSeparation Forum series started in September 2012 at the
Biotechnology Center IZB in Martinsried/Germany. The event provi-
ded the latest technical and scientific information about downstream
processing to accelerate development and optimize production of
biomolecules. With almost 80 participants from industry, academia
and scientific institutes this event was a big success and we decided
to expand this series over Europe. Today, we look back on six events,
in Switzerland, the Netherlands, Austria, England and Germany. More
than 250 guests attended these free of charge workshops and enjoyed
a day full of biochromatography.
Typical topics covered were high throughput screening, process
development and modern techniques in separation of monoclonal
antibodies, recombinant proteins, plasma proteins and oligonucleo-
tides. Additionally practical aspects in packing of columns have been
presented as well as new chromatography technologies such as radi-
al, continuous and counter current chromatography. The participants
benefited from networking opportunities during coffee and lunch
breaks to discuss specific technical challenges.
What distinguishe the Bioseparation Forum from other company
seminars is that the broad mixture of topics is presented not only by
specialists from Tosoh Bioscience but also by invited speakers from
other suppliers, from academia and TOYOPEARL and TSKgel users
from biotech industry and research. Suppliers of chromatography
technology, such as Atoll GmbH, Proxcys BV, and service providers,
e.g. ChromaCon AG and ViruSure, covered topics related to down-
stream processing. Renowned scientists, such as Marcel Ottens from
the TU Delft or Jürgen Hubbuch from the Karlsruhe Institute of Tech-
nology (KIT), gave deeper insights to their field of research.
THE SERIES WILL BE CONTINUED WITH TWO EVENTS IN AUTUMN 2014:
