Introduction to design of experiments (DOE1)

Course

About course

This 3-day course provides an introduction to design of experiments (DoE) principles and the statistical terms associated with them. Gain an overview of DoE in process development, and learn different DoE designs and the process of evaluating results. Hands-on exercises will provide experience in evaluating various pre-generated DoE data files.

Students will set up and run their own DoE experiment on an ÄKTA avant™ or ÄKTA pure™ system, assess potential responses, and evaluate the results.

- Understand the concept of DoE, how it relates to Quality by Design (QbD), and how it plays an important role in establishing a process design space

- Discover how to choose a suitable experimental design according to different applications and scenarios

- Learn how to evaluate data from DoE investigations and how DoE results can be employed to define design and operating spaces

- Gain systems and application knowledge related to DoE

A basic understanding of chromatography principles is required. Prior to attending this course, refresh your knowledge on chromatography with these recommended online courses.
