Key Considerations When Outsourcing Cell Culture Medium Development
By Life Technologies
Today, cell culture media for biological manufacturing represents a sizable market of more than $500 M, but more impressive is the cumulative value of therapeutic products enabled by these reagents, which totals more than $35 B. Given the importance of these reagents, major suppliers, drug manufacturers, and other biotech companies continue to make significant investments to improve their cell culture media platforms.


Fermentation Technology: Cooking Up New Therapeutics
By SAFC
Therapeutic drugs are substances used for health restoration in the treatment of disease, drawing on the utilization of microbial bio-factories. These bio-factories offer the pharmaceutical industry a reliable, powerful, and economic source for therapeutics. This article looks at examples of therapeutic drugs that are primarily isolated through microbial fermentation.

Spotlight On Cell Culture

Datasheet: DASGIP Parallel Bioreactor System For Cell Culture
DASGIP Parallel Bioreactor Systems, for cell culture applications, are designed to achieve high experimental throughput and maximum information output for 4, 8, or 16 bioreactors in parallel. Precise and comprehensive process control guarantees highly scalable and reproducible results.


Scheduling Biomanufacturing Operations
This whitepaper describes the complexity associated with scheduling biomanufacturing operations and presents the idea of "variability aware, always feasible" scheduling.


Skip Steps In Cell Culturing
With the innovative Cell Culture Flask Adapters, the culture can be centrifuged directly in the flask. Data illustrate that cell yield, cell viability, and endpoint analysis results are comparable when cell cultures are processed traditionally or centrifuged directly in the flask using Cell Culture Flask Adapters.


Datasheet: PANsys3000 — Fully Automated Parallel Cell Culture And Microscopy
The PANsys3000 features a fully automated cell culture System, six separate cell culture chambers, closed and fully controlled incubation and support system (gasses, liquids), and live cell imaging.
