Growing usage of bioreactors for medium preparation, cell culture, process development, optimization, and microbial processes ...

Responsiveness to user needs, not an enthusiasm for bells and whistles, is what drives bioreactor design, which strives to improve process control, ease of use, scalability, and more.

Biopharmaceutical companies don’t have to stick to a single bioreactor design during scale-up.

Within the pharmaceutical industry, bioreactors refer to vessels and containers used to store microorganisms such as bacteria, cells, and algae.

Capable of working with 8 individually controlled bioreactors, the BioXplorer 100 is a bioreactor system that allows for the boosting of productivity and the screening of cell culture conditions.

Their at-home bioreactor design is about the size of a table lamp and can produce about two cups of cell culture each week, in a self-contained plastic bag.

Bioreactor design for bioproduction There are several types of bioreactors (Figure 2); the stirred-tank bioreactor was the first used on a large scale in 1943 for penicillin production.18 It consists ...
