Secondary Packaging: Creating Value with Product Lifecycle Management

by

with Daniela Guttmann and Susanne Hall Increasing regulatory requirements combined with the market pressure to develop patient-friendly drug delivery systems make product lifecycle management (PLM) a decisive field for today’s pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. Their strategic service providers also are affected by those conditions. For example, as an internationally operating contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO), Vetter reports an increasing number of life-cycle management projects with its customers in the past years. Learn more in this white paper from Vetter.…

The Path to Genderless Connectors: How Genderless Connectors Lead to More Flexibility, Faster Changeovers and Reduced Costs

by

Genderless sterile connectors — with their ability to interconnect with each other without male/female limitations — can enhance the flexibility of single-use systems in a wide range of bioprocessing applications. Genderless connectors reduce system complexity, which in turn lowers requirements for inventory management, simplifies operator training and reduces misconnections in the manufacturing suite. In fact, it’s possible this new connector design will drive industry change similar to the transition from stainless, reusable systems to single-use. How can something as small…

New Device for Biomass Monitoring in Shake Flask Culture

by

We developed a novel system for online biomass measurement in shake flasks based on near 360° scattered light detection. The optosensoric components were combined with the established PreSens SFR Shake Flask Reader technology, so biomass, pO2 and pH can be monitored non-invasively through the flask bottom. First application of the prototype SFR vario on Escherichia coli K12 and Kluyveromyces marxianus culture resulted in highly reproducible online biomass data, with relative errors matching those of standard offline OD measurements.
