MONDAY, MARCH 22, 2021
PLENARY SESSION - 5:00 - 6:30pm CET
Innovation for Your Success: The Waters Liquid Chromatography Portfolio
Modern laboratories are challenged daily to meet business and scientific goals in a fast-changing environment. This session will introduce you to the modernized Waters chromatographic portfolio that was designed to help you overcome your analytical questions. You’ll learn about the newest addition - the ACQUITY PREMIER - and the innovations built into the system. You’ll also see the column chemistries and sample preparation products that function as an integral part of the PREMIER system solution.
Afternoon Session - 7:30 - 9:00pm CET
Reducing OOS Results in the Pharma QC Laboratory
Out-of-Specification (OOS) results due to poor method performance in the pharma lab can impact time-to market, revenue and reputation. This session will provide practical tools to assess and address issues related to LC instruments and methods in view of existing and forthcoming guidelines from the USP and ICH.
