DOWNSTREAM PROCESSING WHITE PAPERS & CASE STUDIES

  • Turning Data Into Information

    As biopharmaceutical manufacturing has evolved from small-scale lab production in small flasks to massive commercial production in deep-tank bioreactors, an avalanche of production data has evolved to support it. From individual unit operation skids to distributed control systems and enterprise resource planning tools, biomanufacturing today is buried by the sheer quantity of data coming in from the manufacturing floor.

  • Rapid Screening Of A Cell-Based Assay For GLP-1 Receptor Using A Natural Product Library

    Here we demonstrate the detection of GLP-1R binding through the incorporation of a homogeneous cell-based binding assay using HTRF Tag-lite® technology. By Brad Larson and Peter Banks, BioTek Instruments, Inc. and Nicolas Pierre, Suzanne Graham, Jean-Luc Tardieu, and François Degorce, Cisbio US, Inc.

  • Biomanufacturing Flexibility

    This white paper from BIO-G looks at how to create flexible, agile manufacturing facilities to respond to the current glut of biomanufacturing capacity and industry consolidation. Future proofing these facilities for higher titers and multiple product lines is also explored.

  • Cultivation Of CHO Suspension Cells And SEAP Expression

    This application note describes the cultivation of CHO suspension cells in the wave-mixed Thermo Scientific HyPerforma Rocker Bioreactor with a maximum working volume of 5 L. 

  • Agilent Microarray Grant Application Support White Paper This guide offers an overview of Agilent’s microarray and SureSelect product offerings with ordering details to assist researchers with the details of grant submission.
  • Chromatography Column Protection With 3M Purification LifeASSURE™ PLA Series Membrane Filters Protective, or guard, filters are often used in chromatography column purification steps to protect the column media from contaminants in the various fluids that come in contact with the column.

The Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer is a microfluidics-based platform for sizing, quantification and quality control of DNA, RNA, proteins and cells on a single platform. Results are delivered within 30-40 minutes in automated, high quality digital data.

PreSens offers a new system for measuring oxygen and pH in shake flasks. The SFR – Shake Flask Reader measures rapid and precise in up to 9 shake flasks simultaneously. This novel device is used for microbial cultivations and cell cultures.

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).

New C-Flex® ULTRA pump tubing is the latest addition to the C-Flex family of thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) tubing. Specifically designed to meet the critical demands of the biopharmaceutical industry, C-Flex® ULTRA outperforms all other TPE materials on the market today.

Time-to-clinic and time-to-market are two key factors in successful biopharmaceutical development.

Proyield Soy SE50MAF-UF is a protein hydrolysate derived from soy protein by enzymatic hydrolysis. The enzymes used for digestion are from non-animal sources. Proyield Soy SE50MAF-UF has been ultrafiltered to reduce endotoxin.
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that regulate the activity of specific mRNA targets and play crucial roles in a wide variety of biological processes, including gene expression, development, proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis.

BalanCD® CHO Feed 2 is a chemically-defined protein-free feed medium designed to be added as a fed-batch supplement to promote cell growth and increase process yields of antibodies and recombinant proteins.
