Transforming biomanufacturing with innovative dual-purpose single-use bioreactors and fermenters for pilot-scale operations

In the dynamic field of biotechnology manufacturing, Single-Use-Systems (SUSs) Bioreactors have become an integral part of many bioprocess facilities for bioproducts.  SUSs are comparatively safer, simpler and more flexible than their stainless-steel bioreactor counterpart, and for that reason, their usage is commonly between the biopharmaceutical industry in complex projects such as the development and production of new vaccines, therapies and diagnostic equipment. 

Traditional bioreactors, designed primarily for mammalian cell culture, often fall short in addressing the distinctive needs of microbial cultures, such as elevated oxygen transfer capacity and precise temperature control. Identifying this gap, TECNIC proudly introduces the ePILOT® SU, a scalable Dual Purpose Bioreactor/Fermenter Single-Use Bioreactor for both cellular and microbial cultures.

Engineered to scale seamlessly from 30L to 50L, both cellular and microbial versions of ePILOT® SU offer one indisputable operational productive advantage over stainless steel bioreactors; as Single-Use Systems (SUSs) eliminate the necessity for re-sterilization and the validation of the cleaning system, they reduce downtime between batches, saves production time, and simultaneously ensures a lower risk of  cross-contamination. In turn, this fast and flexible manufacture characteristic accelerate commercialization of biopharmaceutical products.

Demonstrating TECNIC's commitment to innovation, ePILOT® SU signifies a promising future for biomanufacturing. This equipment, engineered for superior performance and user convenience, showcases precision temperature control, efficient agitation, and comprehensive instrumentation. It also delivers unparalleled performance and operational ease in both microbial and cellular bioprocesses. Equipped with a robust automation system and an optimized single-use bioreactor bag assembly, the ePILOT Single-Use bioreactor ensures operational simplicity. Complementing this equipment, TECNIC eBAG® 3D STR ⇀ , designed and manufactured in our ISO7 Clean Room facilities, presents an innovative solution catering to both microbial and cell culture applications. It effectively addresses the most demanding challenges in the market.
