PBS bioreactors feature low shear mixing and high mass transfer rates from the patented Air Wheel™ mixing mechanism, making them a perfect complement to the Refine Technology ATF™ System which provides a reliable and efficient process of cell separation and supports cell growth to extreme concentrations. The ATF System allows increased volumetric productivity and reduced bioreactor size. Together the PBS Biotech single-use bioreactors and the Refine Technology perfusion systems are ideal for demanding R&D laboratory to clinical stage high-density cell culture applications including:

  • Concentrated perfusion
  • Concentrated fed batch
  • Continuous culture
  • Primary recovery/clarification
Key Benefits of the PBS/Refine Technology Solution:

  • Significantly increased cell density
  • Simpler cell separation
  • Low profile, ease of use and high performance
  • Reduced equipment costs
  • Reduce vaccine and protein development and production costs
  • Increase operational flexibility and process efficiency
