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.
