Webinar On-Demand: Accelerate Upstream Processing With Scalable, Single-Use Cell Culture Systems 

Explore the benefits of moving from traditional bioreactors to single-use Ambr® 250 Modular and Biostat STR® systems to enhance speed, scalability, and cost-efficiency from process development to commercial manufacturing. 


What You Will Learn

  1. Understand how project timelines can be reduced by transitioning from traditional glass bioreactors to the Ambr® 250 Modular system 
  2. Deepen process understanding by implementing high-throughput upstream process development tools to mitigate risks at the manufacturing scale
  3. Learn how Biostat STR® enables flexible project operation and advanced process control, with the capability to switch from fed-batch to perfusion mode for process intensification
