HaLCon

Chromatography without complexity.

Accurate, actionable protein titer in minutes, not days — purpose-built for bioreactor sampling, IgG quantitation and mAb production.

HaLCon instrument

Overview

What it does

HaLCon delivers immediate, actionable protein-titer data for bioreactor sampling and process control — keeping workflows on track and reducing costly hold times in continuous manufacturing. At Lonza, HaLCon replaced slow HPLC measurements with rapid, accurate titer data, helping teams spot issues earlier, make faster decisions and reduce delays. With HPLC-level accuracy (R² > 0.99) and a 5-minute time-to-result, HaLCon brings chromatography-grade titer into the hands of every bioprocess scientist — without the method development.

Key Features

Why teams choose it

5-minute titer

Decisions in minutes, not days.

Crude samples, no prep

Run crude samples without dilution or extensive preparation.

Low sample volume

Inject just 100 μL.

HPLC-level accuracy

R² > 0.99 against reference HPLC titer.

Autosampler-ready

Scale throughput with seamless autosampler integration.

Compact, GMP-ready

Footprint built for development and GMP labs.

Applications

Built for these workflows

  • Bioreactor sampling

    Real-time titer for process control and continuous manufacturing.

  • IgG quantitation

    Rapid antibody titer across discovery and development.

  • mAb production

    Spot issues earlier in upstream processes.

  • Clone selection

    Higher-throughput screening of producer cell lines.

Configuration

Packaging & integration

HaLCon analyzer is compatible with the Nest Autosampler for multi-sample automation — holds up to 2 × 96-well plates or 2 × 48 (2 mL vial) racks, with cooling and non-cooling options, and integrates with the Sartorius Ambr® 15/250 bioreactor.
