sterilized, dry power
Characteristic
CBMC-MCdex1 Gamma is based on a cross-linked dextran matrix which is substituted with positively charged N, N-diethylaminoethyl groups. The charged groups are distributed throughout the microcarrier matrix and the resin has an ionic capacity of 1.4 to 1.6 mmol Cl- /g of resin.
Applications
Microcarrier-based culturing can be performed in simple shaker flasks or roller bottles as well as in more advanced traditional or single-use bioreactor systems, from milliliter to thousands-of-liter scales. Compared with cultivation in several shake flasks or roller bottles, one single bioreactor culture allows: Automatic control of pH and dissolved oxygen (DO), in-line cell counting, and logging of cell culture data for product documentation. Perfusion culturing to high cells densities, minimizing the need for several intermediate seed train bioreactors during scale-up. Scaling to be performed in one bioreactor system. Inactivation of harmful organisms in the entire culture batch to be performed in just one step.
Quality control analysis
Performance of CBMC-MCdex1 Gamma is validated with serum free medium. Every batch conforms to stringent specifications. Quality control tests are performed to satisfy both physiochemical and functional (i.e., cell growth) properties.
