Enabling Greater Process Control and Higher Protein Titers: Advances in Downstream Single-Use Technologies

Downstream protein purification (the stage in which a protein is isolated and purified) is one of the last steps in biotherapeutic manufacturing. Single-use technologies are an increasingly popular choice for both upstream and downstream bioprocessing because they offer significant benefits over traditional multiuse manufacturing systems. Single-use technologies also provide an array of logistical benefits, including reduced costs, minimized risk of cross-contamination, and improved operational efficiency (1). Challenges remain, however, in designing a complete, streamlined, single-use process for downstream protein purification.…

Safety in Single-Use Systems

      Single-use technologies are a growing market and becoming increasingly common in biopharmaceutical manufacturing. Because of this growth and their increasing use in further reaches of upstream and downstream processes, understanding the safety and sanitation of single-use technology is vital. One of the key benefits of single-use systems is their potential to eliminate cross-contamination during pharmaceutical manufacturing. In processes that are entirely single-use, replacement of the fluid path assembly during production eliminates the concern for contamination in any…

Single-Use Systems from Start to Finish

          Single-use systems have become all the rage in the biotechnology industry, driven largely by the need to reduce cleaning requirements and associated time, validation, and cost factors with stainless vessels. A well-developed single-use system will ensure lower risk of contamination in manufacturing while eliminating the cleaning process and cleaning validation.   Providing Solutions   Advanced Scientifics provides specific solutions to process needs in fluid transfer and handling, offering flexibility in the design and componentry of…
