Cellexus Limited launched the CellMaker Regular disposable bioreactor system. The system was designed for bacterial and yeast fermentation. This single-use bioreactor system, which is available in eight litre and 50 litre sizes, provides increased ODs and improved yields of soluble protein when compared with flask grown cultures, according to Cellexus.
The CellMaker Regular uses CellexusBags which are single-use, disposable cell culture bags, which allow fast set-up times and eliminate lengthy cleaning protocols. The system employs proprietary airlift technology to mix, aerate, and maintain cell suspension. The CellMaker Regular controller allows for precise management of temperature (from 15 to 45⁰C), bag-pressure and flow of both air and oxygen into the culture. Accurate control of these parameters enables optimisation of culture growth and improved expression levels of soluble protein.
