Our office is closed from Friday, 24 December to Friday, 31 December 2021 due to Christmas and New Year holidays. Orders received after 20 December 2021 will be processed after the holiday break.
We apologise for any inconvenience and look forward to being back in touch again from Monday, 3 January 2022 on.
The global fight against the COVID 19 pandemic has moved mRNA vaccines on the center stage. The mRNA technology utilizes lipid-based formulations as a drug delivery system. To protect the fragile mRNA molecules from degradation, they are commonly encapsulated in liposomes or lipid nanoparticles.
CAMAG has released an application note on the analysis and quality control of lipid-based formulations by HPTLC. This methodology demonstrates an efficient approach for identification and stability testing of lipids and lipid-based formulations.

Event Overview
High-Performance Thin-Layer Chromatography (HPTLC) is the method of choice for the analysis of complex and variable samples. Conventionally, manual user intervention is necessary between each step of the HPTLC workflow. With the CAMAG HPTLC PRO System, the era of full automation throughout the entire workflow begins. In this webinar, Dr. Melanie Broszat, Scientific Business Development Manager at CAMAG, demonstrates the power of this revolutionary system based on polysaccharide content of honey samples representing the field of sugar analysis by HPTLC.
Key Learning Objectives
Extend your knowledge about HPTLC and explore the performance of the fully automated HPTLC PRO System
Learn how several analytical tasks such as quantification, identification and bioactivity screening of analytes can be fulfilled with a single system
Get evidence that HPTLC is the method of choice in quantitative analysis of complex samples, featuring faster analysis and reduced costs per sample
Who Should Watch
Analysts performing routine QC interested in a costeffective, straight-forward separation technique
Decision-makers and opinion leaders in the field of analytical chemistry
Laboratory specialists interested in HPTLC applications

As an excellent alternative to GC and HPLC, high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) is the method of choice for the analysis of complex and variable samples. HPTLC has proven its value as a reliable quantitative analysis technique for the quality assurance of herbal medicines and dietary supplements, food, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and many other industrial products.
The HPTLC process consists of four major steps: application, development, derivatization, and detection. Historically, manual intervention was required between each step of the HPTLC process. In this webinar, Dr. Melanie Broszat, Scientific Business Development Manager at CAMAG, will introduce the HPTLC PRO, a fully automated HPTLC sample analysis and evaluation system launched in 2019. Dr. Broszat will present the key applications of the system for routine quality control across multiple disciplines and provide information on the freely available sources of related methods. Current and future trends in HPTLC will also be discussed, as well as the role CAMAG plays in this rapidly accelerating field.
Key learning objectives
Extend your knowledge about HPTLC and get acquainted with the newest trends in HPTLC instrumentation
Explore the next level of HPTLC (automation and high reproducibility)
Get access to available data to perform HPTLC
Gain insight into the future of detection tools and their evaluation
Who should attend?
Analysts performing routine QC interested in a cost-effective, alternative separation technique
Decision-makers and opinion leaders in the field of analytical chemistry
In January 2018, CAMAG informed about the end of support for all winCATS versions before 1.4.10. In order to best support our valued customers, CAMAG went on providing winCATS version 1.4.10, winCATS CDs, winCATS updates and EquiLink files.
CAMAG now announces the end of support for all winCATS versions, including version 1.4.10 for the end of 2020.
What does end of support mean?
winCATS is approaching the end of its support lifecycle. This means that as of 1 January 2021, there will be:
No new winCATS CDs available
No replacement winCATS CDs available
No winCATS update available
No winCATS EquiLinks available
No technical support available
What should you/your customer do?
CAMAG strongly recommends to proactively approach your winCATS customers. Your customers have several options:
Update to visionCATS latest version (last call) For all customers in a controlled environment a must to assure data security and integrity (check compatibility of instruments).
Update to winCATS version 1.4.10 before 2021 Brings the winCATS installation to the last winCATS version. This is not recommended as the system is not supported and not protected anymore (check compatibility of instruments).
Remain on the present winCATS version below 1.4.10 No support and no update to version 1.4.10 as of 1.1.2021
