How Reliable Is The Pharma Equipment You Buy?When it comes to equipment manufacturing in the pharmaceutical industry, it is imperative that a product functions exactly as it was intended. Any misstep caused by faulty equipment could have catastrophic results for the company that produces a drug, but more importantly, for the patient who uses it. The serious consequences that can result from a lack of accurate equipment design and the associated manufacturing processes are why Donald Dobert, president and COO of ATL Pharmaceutical/Medical, created his company’s New Product Development (NPD) Planning Process.

Process For Scale-Up Of Adherent Vero Cells From Static Cell Factories To Influenza Production
In cell culture-based vaccine production, scale-up of adherent cells is challenging. This study shows a process for scaling up adherent Vero cells from static cell factories to influenza production at 50 L scale using WAVE Bioreactor™ systems and ReadyToProcess single-use equipment.

A Comparison Of Performance Using Three Bioreactor SystemsEppendorf has introduced a new benchtop cell culture bioreactor that combines the benefits of single-use technology with the trusted performance and true scalability of a stirred-tank design. CelliGen™ BLU eliminates the need for autoclaving and cleaning, reduces validation requirements, provides rapid turn-around between runs, minimizes startup costs, and significantly reduces the risk of contamination because the culture vessel is only used once and then discarded.

PRODUCTS & SERVICES
Integrity Mixers
Integrity™ branded products are made from the same TK8 film so all product-contact areas are identical. This approach simplifies qualification and validation efforts and reduces overall costs. ATMI's Integrity Mixing Systems have the broadest range of flexible, single-use mixing systems. They can contain solid/liquid and liquid/liquid mixing solutions with mixing volumes scalable up to 2000L. The single-use systems eliminate non-value-added cleaning and eliminate cross-contamination risk.
Integrity Bioreactors
Integrity™ Bioreactors are scalable, ergonomic and modular systems with very low shear mixing. Integrity Bioreactors keep control of all process parameters ensuring customized culture conditions, and they are carefully adapted for cultivation of suspension and adherent cells at very high densities. There is no need for CIP/SIP, and can help avoid cross-contamination risks. Integrity™ branded products are made from the same TK8 film so all product-contact areas are identical. This approach simplifies qualification and validation efforts and reduces overall costs.
Newform, Medical Grade Packaging
In the fast growing Biopharma market, the need for ultra clean sterile packaging is growing at a high speed, often driven by regulatory authorities and cGMP regulations.
Eliminating every risk of delivering a contaminated parenteral drug that might be hazardous to a patient's health or even his life is the key concern that drives these regulations. With our Newform™ product line, we respond to this need by producing cleanroom packaging that meets these ever growing requirements.
Pall® XRS 20 Single-Use Bioreactor System
The XRS 20 Bioreactor System is a new single-use bioreactor system with unique agitation and control properties designed for the cultivation of mammalian cells in suspension culture under controlled conditions and suitable for applications ranging from general life sciences research to seed train operations and full GMP production at the 2 to 20 liter scale.
SciLog Automated Bioprocessing Systems
Parker domnick hunter bioprocessing filtration solutions are available as part of an integrated single-use system reducing capital costs, footprint and validation of cleaning regimes. Our products are aimed to minimize the potential risk and maintain flexibility as product development moves from R&D to full commercial production. We integrate currently validated components into a fully validated and ready-to-use system solution.
SciPure™ TFF and NFF Systems: Ideal For GMP Manufacturing
Accelerate to market and reduce your purification costs with SciLog’s SciPure™ TFF and NFF Systems.
Single-Use And Ready-To-Use Biopharmaceutical Products
Biopharmaceutical development and manufacturing demands scalable processes that can be quickly developed and smoothly transferred to production. GE Healthcare Life Sciences’ single-use and ready-to-use technologies, ReadyToProcess™ and Xcellerex™, play a crucial role in providing the flexibility to support multi-product facilities. They deliver process time savings by removing steps such as cleaning, cleaning-validation, filter prewashing and column packing, allowing faster start-up and easier changeover between products.
