The Thermo Scientific Harvestainer Microcarrier Separation System BPC is composed of Aegis5-14 single web, multi-layer plastic film and includes a single inner bioprocess container (BPC), and 1 top port (MPX body), 1 bottom drain (MPX insert). This system enables the simple and effective separation of microcarriers from the cell culture supernatant harvest in a single-step, in a completely closed system. The Harvestainer BPC features a dual chamber system comprised of a 25L pillow-style BPC within the 2000L BPC. The inner Thermo Scientific™ Microcarrier Labtainer™ BPC, maximizes product recovery and microcarrier retention – the beads remain within this inner BPC while the supernatant collects in the outer 200L BPC.
Features:
• Use this system to eliminate post-use cleaning steps required with re-useable containers, and to reduce cross-contamination risks.
• All 3D BPCs are constructed in an ISO 7 cleanroom under cGMP conditions.
• Dual interior Microcarrier Labtainer option and Harvestainer BPC manifolding capability enable a spectrum of expansion – making the system scalable from process development to full cGMP commercial production.
