Title

New Innovation: Harvesting CHO and HEK293 Cells with the Rapid Clear® Cap provides 0.2μm filtration in a fraction of the time and requires less consumables than other clarification methods

Description

When producing biologics, cell yield, viability, and effective clarification are critical. Thomson's patented Optimum Growth® Flask facilitates scalable mixing and high gas exchange rates to produce high density yields of viable cells. Now, to extend the Optimum Growth® Flask product line into downstream processing, Thomson has developed a revolut...

When producing biologics, cell yield, viability, and effective clarification are critical. Thomson's patented Optimum Growth® Flask facilitates scalable mixing and high gas exchange rates to produce high density yields of viable cells. Now, to extend the Optimum Growth® Flask product line into downstream processing, Thomson has developed a revolutionary new technology to perform high speed clarification of cellular material. The Rapid Clear Cap® 3000 eliminates the multiple transfer steps involved in clarification and will filter between 2L-4L of high density culture in under 35 minutes. This technique transforms the time consuming and laborious process of harvesting cells to a rapid, eco-friendly walk away procedure.
