Micro Bioreactor installed at top US Pharma
Nov 14 2011
TAP Biosystems, has installed its micro bioreactor system (ambr™) with integrated cell viability analyser in one of the world’s top 10 pharmaceutical companies. This walk-away system will be used to assist in predicting how antibody-expressing cell lines will perform in large scale bioreactors. TAP Biosystems specialists also integrated the customer’s Cedex HiRes cell analyser into the system’s workflow. The ability to manage the system with cell counting from one central point is enabling the pharma company’s researchers to reproducibly control and evaluate the behaviour of their antibody-expressing cell lines at micro scale (10–15ml working volume), the company said. Dr Barney Zoro, ambr Product Manager at TAP Biosystems, explained: "There is data which suggests incorporating a cell analyser into an automated cell processing workflow delivers more precise results, as the count variation that
can occur between different sample handling practices, is reduced. Therefore, we are delighted to have successfully integrated a second type of cell analyser into the ambr system at such a major pharma because it offers researchers the opportunity to confidently run and control larger numbers of experiments, as and when they need to, without being constrained by the working day.”
