Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Isomerization of a monoclonal antibody is one of the common routes of protein degradation. An isomerization in the complementarity-determining region (CDR) was found previously and is investigated in depth in this work. Affinity analysis proves that the antibody with one isomerized heavy chain has lower binding. Binding constants were determined, and exhibited a slower on-rate in conjunction with a faster off-rate for this isomerization. To determine the role of the buffer on the rate of isomerization, this antibody was incubated in various matrices and the amount of isomerized antibody was determined by hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC). The rate was found to be dependent on the pH as well as the net negative charge of the buffer components that can act as proton acceptors. An Arrhenius plot was performed to predict the levels of isomerization and a comparison of real samples proved the model was correct. This work affirms that isomerization in the CDR of a therapeutic antibody is important to monitor and the formulation buffer plays a significant role in the rate of the isomerization. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
