Alliance Pharma is gearing up for the #AAPS PharmSci 360 Conference in DC.  Meet Our Scientist for Poster  #M1430-03-017 - Development of an LC-MS/MS

Method for Quantification of Cytarabine in Rat Plasma. Stop by our booth #610 or schedule a meeting with us at the conference Ryan Klein 919-801-3146 or email rklein@alliancepharmaco.com.

It’s a great opportunity to connect with leading #pharmaceutical #scientists from across the globe!

Alliance Pharma is dedicated to bringing comprehensive solutions to our collaborative partnerships.  We understand the importance of efficiency and our team of scientists strive to provide the highest analytical services for your project. 

Our recent purchase of multiple Agilent 6545XT AdvanceBio QTOFs – which is specifically designed with biopharmaceutical characterization in mind - provides high resolution and sensitivity for qualitative and quantitative analyses of biomolecules ranging from peptides to intact monoclonal antibodies. The iterative peptide mapping workflow allows us to dig deep into samples with a wide range of analyte concentrations (i.e. host cell proteins and sequence variants). The Agilent 6545XT AdvanceBio QTOF maximizes our uptime by performing thousands of protein injections without degradation of performance with mass accuracies within 10 ppm for glycosylated intact proteins. 

At Alliance Pharma we believe keeping up with the latest technology helps us to provide the best services for our clients.  The 1290 Infinity II LC system when coupled with the 6545XT, represents the next generation LC for ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography with superior reliability, offering efficient and reproducible separations of biomolecules for detection by MS or integrated UV and FLD modules. 

By using instruments that complement our scientist’s knowledge and experience we meet analytical objectives, increase productivity, and are cost-effective.  Contact us to see how our recent instrument purchase will help keep your project on track.  Call or email Ryan at 919-801-3146 or  rklein@alliancepharmaco.com for more information.

Alliance Pharma has hired Dr. Ryan Klein as Director of Business Development. Dr. Klein has more than 20 years of experience in the pharmaceutical industry developing both oral and topical dosage forms for a range of indications. Dr. Klein began his career at GlaxoSmithKline, where he was an integral component of their drug discovery organization providing drug metabolism and pharmacokinetic expertise to project teams. He was instrumental in the development and implementation of a number of in vitro and in situ ADME models to assess drug absorption, metabolism, and disposition.

After leaving GSK, Dr. Klein joined Tergus Pharma, a CRO providing topical R&D services to the pharmaceutical industry. At Tergus, Ryan filled various roles including leadership positions as the Head of Research & Development and Head of In Vitro Sciences, as the company grew from five employees to approximately seventy five over a seven year period.

Dr. Klein’s areas of expertise include drug permeability, absorption and metabolism in the gastrointestinal tract, liver and skin, intestinal drug transporters, and the anatomy, physiology, and pharmacology of the skin and GI tract. He also has a strong analytical background with extensive experience developing and validating in vitro release testing methods for semi-solid dosage forms, as well as developing and validating HPLC assay and impurities methods.

Leveraging Dr. Klein’s experience on the client side allows Alliance Pharma to collaborate on a higher level with Sponsors, using his in-depth knowledge and vast experience to align the best team of scientists to support each project.

Ryan earned his bachelor’s degree in Chemistry from Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, and earned his doctoral degree in Pharmaceutical Sciences from the School of Pharmacy at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Ryan has authored & co-authored numerous scientific publications and patents, and serves as a member of several pharmaceutical research focus and discussion groups.
