Description: Comprehensive characterization of critical reagents is essential for sustaining BioA programs, as it verifies reagent identity, stability, and functional performance over time. Systematic evaluation of both activity and biophysical properties at the time of production helps reduce assay risk, minimize lot-to-lot variability, and ensure long-term stability. Ongoing monitoring of biophysical variation further enables forecasting of reagent activity and proactive lifecycle management.

Learning Objectives:

Identify key assessment parameters, including reagent activity and biophysical stability, at the time of production.
Recognize how ongoing monitoring of biophysical variation can reduce assay risk and minimize lot-to-lot variability.
Recognize and forecast long-term reagent performance.
