Authors: Holly Sullivan, David Koechlein, Justin Lussier Introduction The ability produce biological drugs at lower costs and higher yields has been a major focus for biomanufacturing. With the advent of Single-Use Bioreactors and improved molecular biology, cell cultures can be > 20 x 106 cells/mL (1). Clarification of these cultures typically involves a primary depth […]
What Are Peristaltic Pumps? Peristaltic pumps — also called tubing pumps, roller pumps, or hose pumps — are important tools for medical, laboratory, and bioprocess/biopharma processes. They are a laboratory staple commonly used for processes such as fluid transfers, filtration/chromatography applications, volume dosing/metering, and volume control of all types of vessels. Peristaltic pumps are positive […]
