Speed up Process Development and Gain Process Understanding Early on

Run More Development Projects in Parallel

12 or 24 experiments in parallel with our new fully automated  minibioreactor system Ambr® 250 and succeed with more development projects in parallel at lower cost. Speed up optimization of your cell culture process conditions, generate predictive process data and scale-up with confidence to our large scale single-use bioreactor platform Biostat® STR thanks to the fully scalable proven stirred tank design. With integrated DoE and MVDA software tools, you can implement QbD strategies early on to define your design space and gain process understanding at moderate resource investment. Use our BioPAT® MFCS for all your process data, from early process development to production and  translate your process information into knowledge easy, rapidly and reliably.

Generate Predictive Small Scale Data

Simplify Scale-up and Scale-down Activities

Simplify Scale-up and Scale-down Activities

Our rigid-wall and bag bioreactor vessels featuring a single-use, stirred-tank design are based on proven engineering principles known from glass and stainless steel bioreactors: central stirrer shaft, choice of Rushton turbine and low-shear 3-blade segment impellers, geometric similarity of vessel and impeller dimensions, and comparable ring- and microsparger designs. We support your scale-up and scale-down activities with extensive bioreactor engineering data on mixing time, oxygen transfer and power input.
