Fill/Filtration-Freeze/Thaw

Advanced Fluid Management and Freeze/Thaw Logistics

Automated processes for aseptic fluid management and controlled cold chain management optimize manufacturing of drug substance to a large extent. Different drug substances have one necessity in common: control and reproducibility. cGMP-compliant single-use technologies enable standardization in critical process steps where a large technology gap exists in biopharmaceutical production.

Reduced product loss when handling single-use bioprocess containers, highly accurate and automated filtration and aliquotation and controlled freezing and thawing improve bioprocess steps for all modalities; increased cost-effectiveness, higher drug product quality, rapid performance and limitless scalability.
