Guidelines For Proper Filtration And Delivery Of Samples To On-Line Process Analyzers
Increasingly precise process control strategies, often linked to computer control, have accelerated the use of sophisticated on-line chemical composition analyzers in plant applications. Instruments such as gas and liquid chromatographs, ion chromatographs, laser optic instruments, atomic absorption instruments and specific ion analyzers, which were rarities in laboratories ten years ago, are now found routinely in plant settings.

Microbial Fermentation In Single-Use Xcellerex™ XDR-50 MO Fermentor System
This application note describes the performance of a single-use Xcellerex XDR-50 bioreactor system when used in cultivations of E. coli and of modified Pseudomonas fluorecsens (P. fluorescens) producing a monoclonal antibody (MAb). Both the achieved microbe densities and product yield were shown to be consistent with the performance of conventional stainless steel systems.

White Paper: Economic Analysis Of Single-Use Tangential Flow Filtration For Biopharmaceutical Applications Prior to creating an accurate economic model for TFF, a thorough understanding of the process where the TFF is used is needed. A process model is a valuable tool when properly executed and it must accurately include all critical aspects of the purification process. By Michael LaBreck, Mark Perreault, Novasep
