Title
Bridging the Gap in Screening and Scale Up in Insect, CHO, Hybridoma, and HEK293 Cell Lines (Single-Use Optimum Growth Flasks 125mL-5L Flasks with Transfer Caps, and Ports)
Description
Optimum GrowthTM Flasks give excellent growth with space saving capability. By using Optimum GrowthTM Flasks users are able to grow 25mL-3L of Cell Culture versus the competitors max capacity of 1L.The Optimum GrowthTM Flasks have replaced expensive, disposable, Fernbach flasks and also small Wave® Bags (5L & 10L). The Optimum GrowthTM Flasks also...

Optimum GrowthTM Flasks give excellent growth with space saving capability. By using Optimum GrowthTM Flasks users are able to grow 25mL-3L of Cell Culture versus the competitors max capacity of 1L.The Optimum GrowthTM Flasks have replaced expensive, disposable, Fernbach flasks and also small Wave® Bags (5L & 10L). The Optimum GrowthTM Flasks also give high viability cultures with a great use of space as shown by our data in Insect, CHO, Hybridoma, and HEK293 Cell Lines. Transfer Caps allow for the flasks to be used as seed culture for Cell Bags and Bioreactors. We will show data from GPCR Proteins, Soluble Proteins, and Antibodies. Thomson has recently introduced 125mL, 250mL, 500mL and 1.6L Optimum GrowthTM Flasks to compliment the industry standard 5L Optimum GrowthTM Flask. These smaller flasks allow enhanced growth with the same footprint as conventional flasks, but with up to 300% higher working volume for maximum shaker spacer utilization. With the addition of the smaller flasks sizes, Thomson Optimum GrowthTM Flasks are scalable from 125mL to 5L. Transfer Caps allow easy, contamination free inoculation of larger vessels directly from Optimum GrowthTM Flasks.
