CPhI Japan Exhibition & Mini Seminar!

Quality assessment of proteins, nucleic acids, AAV, LNP, etc. is possible with trace amounts and high throughput.

"Stunner" is a product that allows simultaneous acquisition of UV/Vis concentration, dynamic light scattering (DLS), and static light scattering (SLS) data from a 2μL identical sample. It enables detailed investigation of AAV and adenoviruses to measure total capsid titer and Empty/Full ratios, as well as to obtain payload concentration and size data of lipid nanoparticles all at once. You can analyze concentration, hydrodynamic size, polydispersity, and the presence of aggregates collectively, allowing you to assess the quality of proteins. This way, you can immediately determine whether your AAV, adenoviruses, lipid nanoparticles, or proteins are suitable for your purposes. [Features] ■ Measure up to 96 samples in a batch in 60 minutes*/12 minutes** *When measured by DLS **When measured by UV/Vis only [Applications] ■ AAV/Adenovirus capsid titer ■ AAV/Adenovirus Empty/Full ratio ■ Lipid nanoparticle (LNP) payload amount ■ Aggregate measurement ■ Concentration measurement ■ Sizing & polydispersity ■ B22 & kD *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Up to 8 samples can be processed simultaneously! Automatic and hassle-free buffer exchange and concentration that used to be complicated!

Buffer exchange and concentration must be performed as a sample preprocessing step. This is a labor-intensive task that takes a long time, requiring your presence throughout the process. "UNAGI" is a fully hands-free benchtop buffer exchange solution designed to take over this tedious task. It can process up to 8 samples simultaneously. The software is very easy to operate, allowing you to be anywhere during the work, eliminating the need to stay in the laboratory the entire time. 【Features】 ■ Simultaneous processing of up to 8 samples ■ Efficient solvent removal prevents sample adsorption, achieving over 96% recovery rate ■ Built-in recipes for UF/DF buffer exchange ■ User-friendly software ■ Concentrates up to 8 diluted samples from 48mL to 8mL in one go *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Dramatically simplified production and condition examination of lipid nanoparticles.

"Nunchuck" is a platform that combines two essential steps needed to create perfectly sized lipid nanoparticles (LNPs): total flow rate (TFR) screening and LNP formulation. In just 10 minutes, you can quickly find suitable conditions through 8-stage total flow rate screening, and then immediately proceed to produce LNPs ranging from 0.25 mL to 1 L. The software is very easy to use, allowing you to start production right away. Additionally, the physical property evaluation of the produced LNPs can be done conveniently and quickly with our Stunner. *For more details, please refer to the LNP application note available via the "PDF Download" button below. Stop the repetitive workflow that measures only one flow rate at a time, and try our LNP production method that completes everything in one go. 【Features】 - Production of LNPs sized 50 to 200 nm - 8-stage TFR screening in 10 minutes - Proven results from 0.25 mL to 1 L - Executed with a dedicated cartridge - Easy to use *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

[Lecturers] Daisuke Tateno, Partner, Arthur D. Little Japan K.K. Akihiro Nagayama, Principal [Key Lecture Content] Drones, AI, software, satellites, and electronic warfare are fundamentally changing the way wars are fought, and the defense industry is currently transitioning from a heavy and traditional model to one centered around AI, software, data, and unmanned systems. In the United States, emerging companies like Palantir and Anduril, which are software-driven, are challenging existing defense firms. In Japan, structural changes are beginning with the Defense Capability Development Plan, the Defense Industry Base Strengthening Act, and the entry of startups. This seminar will discuss the changes in the global security environment and industrial structure, the strategies of advanced players both domestically and internationally, and the areas where Japanese companies can succeed, including dual-use, collaboration with software companies, M&A and alliances, and talent strategies. We will consider how to view change not as a threat but as a growth opportunity, and how to construct a new Japanese defense industry from a management perspective.

[Speaker] Kazuki Miyamoto, Representative/Analyst, VentureClef, USA [Key Lecture Content] The frontier model in the United States is evolving at an unexpected speed. AI agents based on the frontier model have completely transformed business forms in companies. Chinese companies are developing large-scale open source projects, and their performance is approaching that of the U.S. model. Meanwhile, U.S. companies have begun developing open source, leading to a direct confrontation between the U.S. and China. The seminar will examine the frontier models of both countries and explain the latest technologies and important trends. It will organize points on how Japanese companies should perceive the U.S.-China AI development competition from technological and business perspectives. It will also consider strategies for companies to succeed in the AI era, including the differentiation between the U.S. and Chinese models, as well as the advantages and challenges of open source versus closed source. [Lecture Items] <1> Frontier Model (USA) <2> Frontier Model (China) <3> Technology Trends and AI Strategies for Japanese Companies <4> Q&A
