Kubio biopharm model GE Healthcare launches modular biopharmaceutical factory, KUBio

GE Healthcare, the healthcare business of GE, today introduced KUBio™, an innovative off-the-shelf, modular factory designed to save manufacturers of biopharmaceuticals both time and money.  KUBio’s pre-made modules, which are assembled at a customer’s chosen site to make a fully functional ready-to-run bioprocessing facility, are significantly faster to install than constructing a traditional factory.

  • Single-Use Standardization: Is It Holding Back The Biopharma Industry?

    The data from BioPlan Associates’ 12th Annual Report and Survey of Biopharmaceutical Manufacturing Capacity and Production speaks to the industry’s ongoing desires for standardization in single-use devices. As usage of these disposable devices increases, the gap between the importance of standardization and end-users’ satisfaction with their supplier’s standardization efforts has steadily been worsening. 

  • The Benefits Of Genderless Sterile Connectors For Single-Use Applications

    Genderless connections are those in which the connector halves are identical in design, thus eliminating the need for different male and female halves to make the connection.

  • One-Touch Single-Use Fluid Path Assemblies Enhance Operational Flexibility Meissner’s One-Touch single-use fluid path assemblies are designed for secure fluid transfer in critical biopharmaceutical processing applications. The assemblies reduce process risk while providing an enhanced level of convenience that maximizes flexibility in the deployment of singleuse systems, as well as conventional systems.

SoftGrip pipettes routinely receive the highest user satisfaction score of 10 on 11 different aspects of a pipette, including plunger and eject forces, weight, diameter, and texture.

Designed with a smaller footprint so it will fit right in your lab, the Avanti J-E is compact yet powerful. The Avanti J-E’s extensive rotor library maximizes capacity and optimizes g-force for efficient, fast separations and greater variety of applications. Its high-torque, switched reluctance (SR) drive technology delivers faster acceleration and deceleration, which means less wait time for you. It offers an intuitive, user-friendly interface, as well as lower energy costs. What’s more, the Avanti J-E’s low height and contoured front panel help ease the burden of rotor installation and retrieval, for even more convenient operation.
