The technical and economic benefits of single-use are well known and the bio-manufacturing industry is broadening their adoption in all steps of commercial production.

This poster reviews the challenge of poor or inconsistent cell growth associated with the use of single-use bags for media storage and cell culture and how the solutions offered with the new Flexsafe bag family meet these new requirements.

The poster introduces a new product development and supply chain management strategy that involves the use of quality by design concepts, and a cell based assay to ensure consistent and reliable cell growth when using Flexsafe bags. This new strategy provides unprecedented level of quality, cell growth performance, robustness and assurance of supply.
