Cell Therapy Systems—a proven choice for clinical cell therapy manufacturing
As you move from basic cell therapy research to the clinic, high-quality GMP-grade cell therapy ancillary materials and proper documentation are essential to getting it right the first time. Cell Therapy Systems (CTS) products provide a proven choice for clinical stem cell therapy and immunotherapy research and manufacturing so you can transition your cell therapy to the clinic with confidence. In addition to providing serum-free, xeno-free and animal origin-free formulations our GMP-grade CTS products have cell and gene therapy specific intended use statements, extensive safety testing and proactive regulatory documentation. We take these measures to provide quality ancillary materials to help minimize risk, ease the burden on your quality systems, and support your regulatory submission—making CTS the superior choice as you transition from the bench to the clinic.
GMP manufacturing
- Ancillary materials are manufactured in conformity with cGMP for medical devices, 21 CFR Part 820 USP<1043> and Ph Eur 5.2.12
- Our ancillary material manufacturing sites are FDA–registered and ISO 13485– and ISO 9001– certified
Testing and regulatory
- Traceability documentation—including Drug Master Files, and/or Regulatory Support Files, and certificates of origin
- Extensive safety testing—including sterility, endotoxin, and mycoplasma
Proven use
- Used in FDA-approved CAR-T therapies and the first FDA-approved therapeutic cancer vaccine
- Used in over 200 clinical trials
Gibco CTS Rotea Counterflow Centrifugation System
A compact, flexible closed cell processing system, designed to streamline and expedite your cell therapy development, that enables:
- Process flexibility—user-programmable software enables you to create and optimize a broad range of protocols for cell separation, washing, and concentration
- High cell recovery and viability—gentle processing enables >95% cell recovery while maintaining cell viability
- Low output volumes—proprietary technology can deliver as little as 5 mL of concentrate
- Research through commercial manufacturing—the closed single-use kit enables sterile processing, and an OPC-UA interface enables connectivity to a 21 CFR Part 11-compliant system
Cell therapy applications

Cell Therapy Systems products
Less waste
When minimizing waste in your lab, every little bit helps. The 1 L Gibco bottle uses 38% less source material (32% less for the 0.5 L bottle) than comparable media bottles on the market today. This reduces the consumption of non-renewable resources helping shrink your footprint.
Sustainable packaging
Sustainable packaging Packaging must protect the product inside—but that doesn’t have to mean sacrificing sustainability. GlutaMAX-I Media Supplement ships at ambient temperature reducing the annual carbon footprint from packaging and shipping these products by nearly 103 tons (CO2-equivalents).
