Although single-use bioreactors are widely applied in the biopharmaceutical industry, microbial cultivation in them is restricted due to limitations in oxygen mass transfer, mixing, and heat transfer. The CELL-tainer™ single-use bioreactor makes use of an innovative principle applying a two-dimensional (2D) rocking motion, thus providing excellent mass transfer, making this single-use reactor very suitable for microbial cultivation at different scales. With a simple pillow-shaped bag without moving parts, the technology is robust and leads to cost savings compared with other…
