N-Rich® Technology Resources
The N-Rich Process Principle Explained
The N-Rich technique is a twin-column cyclical enrichment process whereby a target molecule or chromatographic region is selectively enriched while the undesired products are simultaneously depleted. The technology can be run on the Contichrom® CUBE to automate the process of impurity enrichment and purification.
This short video illustrates the N-Rich process in three main stages: accumulation, depletion, and fractionated elution.
Common Uses for the N-Rich Technique
- Isolation of product-related impurities for active pharmaceutical ingredients
- Characterization of antibody-drug conjugate isoforms
- Purification of ultra-pure compounds as reference materials
- Isolation of impurities after stability and formulation studies
- Identification of biomarkers and compounds in proteomics and metabolomics research
- Biosimilar CMC characterization
