Experts work to fight vaccine reluctancy: Experts work to fight vaccine reluctancy

November 30, 2021 Michelle Carlin

As the omicron variant spreads — public health experts continue to urge anyone who’s unvaccinated to get those first shots — and for everyone else to get a booster. But many are still reluctant. Some are holding off because they think the vaccines were developed too quickly and they’re taking a wait-and-see approach. Michelle Carlin ...

Faculty Spotlight Dr. Ivan Rivera-Torres Rutgers-Camden TITLE: Pharma CSI: A Hypothetical Case Study Incident During Recombinant Insulin Production that Requires Forensic Chemical Analysis. ABSTRACT: Analysis of atypical particles discovered during the synthesis and manufacturing processes of medical drugs in pharmaceutical companies is essential to determine if such particles are inert and harmless, or whether it is harmful contamination. In this seminar, we will analyze a hypothetical case involving unknown particles that were discovered during the production of a batch of recombinant human insulin. As chemists assigned to a chemical forensic laboratory in industry, we will use a battery of analytical techniques: optical microscopy; scanning electron microscopy; X-ray microanalysis; Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy; and Attenuated Total Reflectance to elucidate the chemical structure that is present in the particles. We are also under time…
