Experience

Life Technologies (formerly Invitrogen) Frederick, MD

Sr. Manufacturing Technician Mar ’02 – Dec ‘11

• Worked in the molecular biology lab under the GMP environment to perform QC sample analysis with MS (MALDI-TOF, Triple Quads) and CE (Combisep).

• Responsible in the team to purify RNA, DNA/protein including large and small scale by using HPLC Waters 2695, Agilent LC, PAGE, ELISA and COP Cartridge methods. As the main force of RNA purification, ensured the all RNA purification timing and quality. DNA/RNA 96-well plate based quantity assay. Distinguished the results of mass spectrometry and CE. Dealt with all paper work and database to ensure the on-time delivery of products. Especially kept high passed rate for the team quarterly goal.

• As a magnetic protein, purified Dynabeads products with SEC column, and pre-coupled it with a biomolecule such as an antibody, protein or antigen, DNA/RNA probe etc.

• Responsible in the team to synthesize DNA and RNA primers. Operated Jurassic Synthesizer, Oligo Pilot, ABI 3900 and Mer made12 to produce various DNA, RNA sequences. Some of them were called semiconductor Sequencing that would be need more carefully. Modified or labeled oligos with special molecules and dyes (Phosphate, Biotin, HEX, TET, Alexa488 etc.).

• Standardized and reviewed laboratory documentation to help the company that gained ISO 9001:2008 certifications.

• Improved on the procedure of RNA purification. As a result, the RNA purification cost was reduced 30% and accomplished in 2 hours less time.

• GMP production documentation, including rewrote and devised SOPs & batch records.

• Trained the new group of people to help the company when it relocated production to CA.
