Cell-based products are becoming increasingly important as potential biotherapies. Cell therapy is predicted to have a huge impact on the healthcare sector over the coming decades. Stem cells, in particular, are investigated as potential treatments for a diverse range of applications (such as heart disease and metabolic and inflammatory disorders) in which they might be used to restore lost biological functions.

Cell therapy is offering a promising future in medical advances. Although multilayer trays are suitable for R&D and preclinical cell amplification, they cannot support large-scale industrial production. A successful transition from laboratory scale to an efficient and robust process based on good manufacturing practice (GMP) is key. The Integrity® Xpansion™ multiplate bioreactors have been specifically designed to enable an easy transfer from existing multiple-tray stacks processes by offering the same cell growth environment on two-dimensional (2D) hydrophylized polystyrene (PS) plates…
Cell-based products are becoming increasingly important as potential biotherapies. Cell therapy is predicted to have a huge impact on the healthcare sector over the coming decades. Stem cells, in particular, are investigated as potential treatments for a diverse range of applications (such as heart disease and metabolic and inflammatory disorders) in which they might be used to restore lost biological functions. The cell therapy industry is starting to mature. Several emerging companies are now supporting late-stage clinical trials,…
