Rapid Mass Spectrometry-Based Multiattribute Method for Glycation Analysis with Integrated Afucosylation Detection Capability.

The multiattribute method (MAM) has emerged as a powerful tool for simultaneously screening multiple product quality attributes of therapeutic antibodies. One such potential critical quality attribute (CQA) is glycation, a common modification that can impact the heterogeneity, functional activity, and immunogenicity of therapeutic antibodies. However, current methods for monitoring glycation levels in MAM are rare and not sufficiently rapid and accurate.
