𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗪𝗵𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗽𝗮𝗽𝗲𝗿 𝗥𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲! 𝗨𝗻𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗟𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗲-𝗦𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗲 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗟𝗮𝗯 We're thrilled to share that the whitepaper from our case study is now live! Using our Perfect Downscale Reactor, we replicated large-scale CHO cell culture effects targeting a 12.000l reactor at the 1L scale. While key control points like viability and cell density remained in range, we uncovered significant variations in product titer and lactate levels—showing typical large-scale effects early in development. This breakthrough allows you to explore large-scale behavior directly in the lab, saving time, costs, and nerves as you scale up. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/dJGm9B29 #biotechinnovation #processdevelopment #cellculture #scalingup #downscale #3dprinting

We were honored to participate in Takeda’s R&D Science Day in Vienna, hosted in collaboration with LISAvienna. Presenting p4b’s DownScale reactor system to Takeda’s experts was a valuable opportunity to discuss real-world challenges in biopharmaceutical process development and explore how our technology can support efficient scale-up. These open exchanges are key to driving innovation in our field, and we’re grateful to Takeda for fostering such a collaborative environment. Events like this highlight the importance of partnerships between industry leaders and innovative startups. We’re excited about the ideas and feedback we received and look forward to future opportunities to work with such dedicated professionals. #Bioprocessing #ScaleUp #Innovation #Collaboration

Using the Sartorius Ambr250? We've got you covered! With our new perfect DownScale Reactor insets, you can now unlock a whole new level of Design of Experiment (DoE) and process evaluation right in this high-throughput system. Our insets for the Ambr250 make it possible to explore large-scale effects at lab scale, helping you gather reliable data and de-risk scale-up with confidence. Imagine running multiple experiments that not only give you a clear view but also open up a world of insights previously unavailable in small-scale systems. Curious to see how these inserts can accelerate your development? Reach out to explore the possibilities! #ProcessDevelopment #DownscaleReactor #Innovation #Bioprocessing #3dprinting

Sometimes, seeing really is believing—even with all the data from sensors and measurements, there’s nothing like a direct look inside the reactor. That’s why we’re thrilled to introduce our latest upgrade: a glass vessel inset for our downscale reactors, enabling visual inspection! 🌡️ This new feature supports double-jacketed vessels and dot sensors, enhancing both flexibility and scalability. The model pictured is fully compatible with Infors HT systems, and we’re confident our downscale insets can integrate with your lab-scale system as well. Imagine running lab-scale processes that mimic the conditions of a 100L, 1000L, or even larger production reactors, uncovering insights like never before. 📸 Take a look at the photos, and let’s discuss how this could elevate your process development! #Bioprocessing #DownscaleReactors #ProcessDevelopment #Innovation

🔍 𝗨𝗻𝗰𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗦𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗲-𝗨𝗽 𝗘𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘀 𝗘𝗮𝗿𝗹𝘆 𝗶𝗻 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗗𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 🔍 In our recent case study, we successfully ran the same process parameters and cell line across four vessels (2 control, 2 perfect DownSCale vessels representing mixing behavior of a 12.000l tank), Critical control points (CCPs) like viability and maximum viable cell density as key metrics remained within the expected range, but we observed significant differences in other process outputs, such as product titer and lactate levels, with lactate being more than twice as high—a typical hypoxia byproduct in CHO cell culture. These results align with observations made by Lena Gaugler, Sebastian Hofmann, Michael Schlüter and Ralf Takors in their publication "Mimicking CHO large‐scale effects in the single multicompartment bioreactor: a new approach to access scale‐up behavior." and other publications about CHO. Crucially, standard process control methods may miss these deviations, as CCPs alone do not tell the full story. Our system is designed to plug and play into your current workflows and lab-scale systems, helping you identify and address these scale-up issues much earlier in the development process. By simulating these large-scale effects at small scales, we’re giving you the tools to avoid costly surprises later on. Stay tuned for our upcoming whitepaper, where we’ll dive into the full findings and insights from this case study—just putting on the finishing touches now! #biotech #bioprocess #scaleup #biopharma #innovation #plugandplay

𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗖𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝗖𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗧𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗻𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗴𝘆! We’re proud to showcase our latest 4-vessel run using the DasGIP system, demonstrating that our specially engineered materials have no impact on the sensitive CHO cell culture process. This is a major milestone for us, as we rely heavily on cutting-edge 3D printing technology to create our wall-structured, perfect downscale reactor vessels. The results? Sterility was maintained flawlessly, and our vessels without structure performed excellently in a real-world setting without process differences to the control glass vessel. Keep tuned for the results of the ones approaching mixing times of a target 12.000l volume! This breakthrough brings us closer to revolutionizing bioprocessing and proving the reliability of advanced 3D printing in biotech applications.

𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝘄𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝘄𝗵𝘆 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘀𝗺𝗶𝗱 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝘀 𝗳𝗹𝗮𝘄𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗹𝘆 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗹𝗮𝗯, 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗴𝗴𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗹𝗼𝘄 𝘆𝗶𝗲𝗹𝗱 𝗮𝘁 𝗹𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗲 𝘀𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗲? The issue might be simpler than you think—it could all come down to mixing. Large-scale reactors often have poor mixing efficiency, leading to uneven plasmid distribution. This means some cells are overexposed while other areas receive no plasmid at all. 🧬 But how can you predict what’s really happening in your large-scale system and how it affects your final product? With our cutting-edge downscale reactors, you can replicate the exact mixing behavior of large-scale systems right in the lab. Our patented wall structure ensures that mixing dynamics are tailored to your production environment, allowing you to run large-scale processes earlier in development. Predict, optimize, and scale with confidence!
