With the growing interest in Biologics within the drug discovery field, the Evotec Sample Management teams have been asked to offer their platforms and expertise to enhance throughput and timelines by establishing robust, high-quality processes in aqueous solvents. While extensive experience with DMSO-based solvents was leveraged, the significantly different properties of the water-based solvents raised new questions regarding the handling of source and destination plates at Sample Management.
To address these challenges, comprehensive tests were conducted, focusing particularly on evaporation and the establishment of a device verification process. This poster presents these processes and provides an overview of the results.
