Supply Side West holds immense significance for Deerland, providing a platform for innovation and a chance to understand customer needs. This event keeps Deerland in tune with market trends and ensures the development of impactful and sought-after products. The return to in-person interactions at Supply Side West is truly invigorating, allowing Deerland to engage with industry peers and customers face-to-face.

With a focus on food and beverage, Deerland aims to expand its reach beyond the supplement space. The goal is to showcase the versatility of their ingredients, probiotics, and Solarplast in diverse applications. Embracing different delivery formats is a key trend, with gummies and liquid formats gaining significant interest. By exploring new avenues outside traditional capsules, Deerland aims to meet evolving consumer preferences and offer innovative solutions.

The connection between the human and pet industries is becoming increasingly apparent. Consumers seek clean and functional ingredients that enhance the health and well-being of both themselves and their pets. Deerland already produces human-grade ingredients, aligning with the growing demand for quality in the pet industry. As the pet market evolves, new ingredients will play a crucial role. Combining probiotics with prebiotics or phages to create synergistic functional ingredients holds promise for future pet products.

Supply Side West’s incorporation of food ingredients is a welcome development, as it highlights the blending of the food and supplement sectors. Deerland has identified complementary ingredients that can enhance their flagship DE111 probiotic, such as powdered kombucha, powdered kefir, and the growing interest in hemp and botanicals. The opportunities are endless, and Supply Side West offers a diverse and vibrant environment to explore and learn from.

Attending Supply Side West for the first time has provided a fresh perspective for Deerland. Stepping out of their comfort zone and witnessing the broader industry landscape has been both insightful and enjoyable. It’s not only about understanding industry trends but also recognizing the impact that DE111, Deerland’s flagship product, is making in the market.

Deerland remains committed to staying at the forefront of innovation and responding to customer demands. By embracing new ingredients, exploring novel delivery formats, and maintaining a human-grade standard, Deerland aims to drive positive change and contribute to the well-being of people and pets alike.

Verdel's Q-2DMS aims to bring 2D mass spectrometry to more common hardware

Verdel's Q-2DMS aims to bring 2D mass spectrometry to more common hardware

Verdel and Warwick have developed a version of two-dimensional mass spectrometry called Q-2DMS. Until now, only the best-funded centers could afford 2DMS hardware, and Verdel's chief executive argues that the field lacked access, not an understanding of what the method can do. If 2DMS moves onto more common hardware, more labs could evaluate it. Published results show up to tenfold more usable spectral information on closely related or near-isobaric compounds, the look-alike molecules that separation and filtering tend to blur together or drop.

  • 01The reported gain of up to tenfold more usable spectral information applies to closely related or near-isobaric compounds, so the best trial samples are the mixtures chromatography struggles to separate.
  • 02A complete time-stamped record can be revisited after a sample runs out or degrades, and a full acquisition could, in principle, let archived runs address new questions later.

Antibody developability checks are moving into discovery instead of waiting for development

Antibody developability checks are moving into discovery instead of waiting for development

Maria Gonzalez-Pajuelo of FairJourney Bio says the order in antibody discovery is changing: developability has become a much more important consideration during discovery, rather than an issue left until later-stage development. The goal, she says, is that what comes out of discovery is something CMC can take forward easily.

  • 01Discovery-stage developability screens can rank many antibodies tested once or twice and may reduce surprises later in development, while development still focuses on several lots of a single antibody and answers different questions.

Caraballo expects AI across all five tracks at ISPE’s 2026 Annual Meeting

Caraballo expects AI across all five tracks at ISPE’s 2026 Annual Meeting

ISPE’s 2026 Annual Meeting and Expo in Washington, DC organizes its program around five tracks running from discovery to governance, with international program committee chair Connie Langer of Pfizer Global Supply and executive chair Jose Caraballo of JCO Global Advisory LLC describing how the tracks connect—and why AI is treated as a cross-cutting topic rather than a standalone track. Deloitte’s December 2025 survey of 280 executives frames the mood the program is built for.

  • 01ISPE’s 2026 Annual Meeting has no dedicated AI track; executive chair Jose Caraballo expects AI presentations across all five tracks, from discovery to governance.
  • 02Deloitte’s December 2025 survey of 280 biopharma and medtech C-suite executives found more than 75% confident in their own outlook but only 41% optimistic about the global economy, a mood the story says the ISPE chairs are programming for.
  • 03A staffing firm reports life sciences job openings falling even as digital fluency becomes a required skill, so the upskilling burden lands on the people already employed, which is where the mandatory, university-partnered AI training Connie Langer describes at her company sits.
