A phase diagram-based toolbox to assess the impact of freeze/thaw ramps on the phase behavior of proteins

The influence of process parameters during freeze/thaw (FT) operations is essential for the preservation of the protein stability/activity during production and storage processes in the biopharmaceutical industry. Process parameters, such as FT ramps, the final storage time and temperature, affect the occurring FT stress onto the target protein in different ways. FT stress includes cold denaturation, freeze concentration, and ice crystal...
