Exploring PROTACs in drug discovery and development

Waters
2 Oct 2025

Proteolysis targeting chimeras (PROTACs) are able to degrade disease-causing proteins by hijacking the cells own degradation pathway. These molecules are therefore changing the drug discovery landscape by enabling targeting for previously 'undruggable' proteins.

Explore advanced LC-MS bioanalytical solutions that can support your PROTAC workflow to confidently quantify and accelerate development with sensitivity, selectivity and reproducibility.

Andrew+

Waters

Andrew+ is based upon 6 years of market feedback, and builds on the success of the Andrew Pipetting Robot. It now enables both fully automated pipetting, as well as the more complex manipulation and grabbing of microplates, tubes and columns, through an expanding range of Andrew+ Accessories. It can also execute protocols designed in OneLab, enabling you to quickly transition from laborious manual procedures to error-free, easily programmable fully-robot workflows.

LC-MSLC-MS (liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry) systems and equipment are used for separation and quantitative analysis of complex mixtures, combining liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. Quantify proteins, contaminants, pesticides or screen for drug metabolites with a high level of sensitivity. LC-MS systems and equipment include reverse phase, normal phase and specialized columns integrated with various MS detectors such as time-of-flight (TOF), quadrupole, orbitrap or ion trap mass analyzers. LC-MS/MS instruments equipped with a qTOF or triple quadrupole analyzer give greater sensitivity and resolving power to your analysis. Find the best LC-MS equipment in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Sample PreparationSample preparation can improve the quality and speed of separation techniques. Products to assist sample preparation include filtration equipment, evaporators, membranes and sieves.Solid-Phase ExtractionSolid-phase extraction (SPE) is used for clean-up, extraction and concentration of semi-volatile or non-volatile analytes from complex mixtures including blood, urine and food samples. Multiple formats are available for conducting SPE, including prepacked SPE cartridges, disks and microplates, as well as SPE sorbent powders for manual packing. SPE systems can be used to automate the process and extract multiple samples at once. Solid-phase microextraction (SPME) and supported liquid extraction (SLE) products are also available in the same formats. Find the best SPE, SLE and SPME equipment in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.BiopharmaceuticalsBiopharmaceuticals are proteins and other compounds (such as nucleic acids) produced by living organisms that have uses as therapeutics or for in vivo diagnostics. The most well known example of a biopharmaceutical product, and the first to be approved for therapeutic use, was recombinant human insulin.
