  • Important Considerations For Implementing A Single-Use Biomanufacturing Strategy

    Recent trends in biomanufacturing technology and the biopharmaceutical market are supporting the increased adoption of single-use (SU) manufacturing systems. On the demand-side, the biopharma industry is focusing on niche and rare diseases with smaller patient populations, resulting in the need for smaller, more agile biomanufacturing capacity. By Jodi M. Zobrist and Nicole W. O'Brien, Ph. D., Gallus Biopharmaceuticals, LLC

  • Determination Of kLa Values Of Single-Use Bioreactors

    Because single use bioreactors offered by  manufacturers vary in parameters critical for oxygen transfer, they are often not comparable to each other and to conventional glass and stainless steel vessels.

  • Materials Of Construction For Biopharmaceutical Water Systems

    Stainless steels are uniquely qualified for bioprocessing applications not only because of their long service life, availability, and fabricability, but also because they are non-corroding, non-contaminant, can be polished to very smooth finishes, are strong and rigid, can withstand heat and chemical sterilization treatments, and are easily welded. By Michelle M. Gonzalez

  • Efficiencies Of Natural Convection In Passive Pallet Shippers

    Bulk transportation of temperature sensitive pharmaceuticals and biologics has become a common practice due to complex global supply chains. By Iftekhar Ahmed, Ben VanderPlas, and Stu Krupnick

  • Comparing The Automated Pipetting To Volumetric Glassware And Air Displacement Pipettes

    Analytical sample preparation is used in many industries such as forensics, environmental chemistry, mining, beer and wine fermentation and many others. Concentrated samples are diluted and analyzed via High Performance Liquid Chromatography, Gas Chromatography, Atomic Absorption, and/or Inductively Coupled Plasma Spectroscopy to name a few. Traditionally these samples are prepared using volumetric glassware, syringes and/or pipettes.

  • How CHT Ceramic Hydroxyapatite Works Application Note

    CHT ceramic hydroxyapatite is a versatile chromatography support used for separation of biological molecules as diverse as polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies, antibody fragments, enzymes, nucleic acids, and membrane proteins.

With the Eppendorf BioSpectrometer basic, measurements can be executed in the UV and Vis range from 200 nm to 830 nm. The freely selectable wavelengths offer you maximum flexibility during these procedures.

The Aquasyn tank bottom valve is a reliable solution for your tank outlet needs, with its conical profile allows for complete drainability and the prevention of deadlegs or entrapment areas.

Capto Core 700 is a multimodal chromatography medium designed for purification of large proteins or viruses in vaccine processes.

Proyield Soy SE70M-UF is protein hydrolysate derived from soy protein concentrate by enzymatic hydrolysis. The enzymes used for digestion are from non-animal sources. Proyield Soy SE70M-UF has been ultrafiltered to reduce endotoxin.
The SPRIworks Fragment Library Systems have built-in size selection and prepare fragment libraries for all three major next generation sequencing platforms. SPRIworks Systems simplify and automate fragment library construction for the Illumina Genome Analyzers, Roche GS FLX DNA Sequencer and Life Technologies SOLiD Sequencers.

Natrix HD Membranes offer a breakthrough in membrane architecture that will forever change downstream purification. Available in two chemistries: Q (strong anion exchange) and Sb (strong cation exchange and hydrophobic group).

High throughput and high productivity are standard fare for every Beckman Coulter centrifuge and the Avanti JXN Series is no exception. It’s more than capable of delivering solutions for shared labs, GMP environments, networked instruments and more.

Choose from ten fixed volume SoftGrip pipettes covering 0.2 µL to 1 mL. All pipettes have color-coded plunger buttons and labels for easy volume identification.
