Hamilton Company released the BioLevitator 3-D Cell Culture System. Developed in collaboration with Global Cell Solutions, the BioLevitator is a benchtop 3-D cell culture system delivering productivity gains to researchers in drug discovery and development, therapeutics, and regenerative medicine. The system brings the engineering and automation expertise of Hamilton together with Global Cell Solutions’ approach to cell culture for a scalable and automated system that reduces costs, while improving the consistency and relevance of cultured cells, according to Hamilton Company.
The system eliminates traditional peripheral cell culture instruments, such as incubators and centrifuges, and minimizes manual handling. Each of the system’s four hydrophobic, PTFE-filtered 50 mL cell culture tubes can produce cell growth equivalent to up to ten T75 flasks, depending on the cell line. The system features a user-friendly touch screen interface with real-time monitoring and control of environmental temperature and CO2 levels.
The system utilizes the Global Eukaryotic Microcarrier (GEM) technology from Global Cell Solutions.
