Enabling High-Performing
Perfusion Cell Culture

by and

At least one report estimates that by 2025, 35% of biologics will be manufactured using enhanced processes, particularly perfusion-based bioprocessing. Results of two innovations that support this need for enhanced processes are examined below. The Thermo Scientific HyPerforma DynaDrive Single-Use Bioreactor (SUB), the latest advancement in SUB technology, offers better performance than other bioreactors and scalability up to 5,000 L. Gibco High-Intensity Perfusion CHO Medium is formulated to provide exceptional performance and ease of use, with capability of sustaining >1…

Simplify Upstream Process Development and Scale-Up: Single-Use 5:1 Turndown-Ratio Bioreactor Technology

by , , and

Single-use technologies (SUTs) have been adopted widely in the biopharmaceutical industry for product development as well as clinical- and commercial-scale manufacturing. Over the years, suppliers of such equipment have addressed concerns about waste management, extractables and leachables, and reliability of supply — and as a result, end users have gained confidence in SUTs. Recognizing potential benefits that can be realized for both clinical and commercial operations, biomanufacturers increasingly are implementing SU solutions at larger scales in both upstream production and…
