The Coulter Principle for Analysis of Subvisible Particles in Protein Formulations
Journal Title: The AAPS Journal - Year 2011, Vol 13, Issue 1
Abstract
The Coulter principle can be used for analysis of subvisible particles in protein formulations. The approach has several advantages including: an orthogonal operating principle, high sensitivity, ability to detect very small particles, excellent reproducibility, and high-resolution size information. This minireview discusses some of the important considerations that must be taken into account when utilizing the Coulter principle for subvisible particle analysis in protein formulations.

Effective Absorption Modeling in Relative Bioavailability Study Risk Assessment
Absorption modeling is an excellent strategic fit to perform a risk assessment for relative bioavailability (RBA) studies as it provides direct input into the question that is at the core of the RBA decision, namely, how...
Regulator of G Protein Signaling 17 as a Negative Modulator of GPCR Signaling in Multiple Human Cancers
Regulators of G protein signaling (RGS) proteins modulate G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling networks by terminating signals produced by active Gα subunits. RGS17, a member of the RZ subfamily of RGS pro...
High glucose concentration in isotonic media alters Caco-2 cell permeability
Caco-2 cell permeability was evaluated in isotonic media containing high (25mM) or physiological (5.5mM) glucose concentrations. Transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) and membrane fluidity were measured to assess...
Mechanism-Based Pharmacokinetic Modeling to Evaluate Transporter-Enzyme Interplay in Drug Interactions and Pharmacogenetics of Glyburide
The purpose of this study is to characterize the involvement of hepato-biliary transport and cytochrome-P450 (CYP)-mediated metabolism in the disposition of glyburide and predict its pharmacokinetic variability due to dr...
Challenges and Opportunities in Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, and Excretion Studies of Therapeutic Biologics
With the advancement of biotechnology in the last two decades, optimized and novel modalities and platforms of biologic moieties have emerged rapidly in drug discovery pipelines. In addition, new technologies for deliver...
