High-Density Cell Banking Recorded Webinar:


How Fluoropolymer Single-use Bags Shorten Seed Train Processes

Learn how high-density cell banking can shorten the seed training process from weeks to days!

High-density cell banking accelerates the upstream process by providing a much larger volume of concentrated cells at the start of a production run. This innovative process eliminates many of the labor intensive and risky approaches currently used by most bioprocessing labs, including:

  • Handling many vials
  • Variable cell viability
  • More contamination risks
  • Weeks to start a bioreactor

Join Jonathan Cartoux and Janelle Rupkalvis, Entegris applications engineers, as they share insights from a CPE Lyon University collaboration that demonstrates the cryoresistance advantages of fluoropolymer 2D single-use bag assemblies in cell freezing and banking for upstream processing.


Register to hear how this solution:

  • Allows high cell concentrations in large volumes to be stored at -150oC
  • Demonstrates direct inoculation in larger bioreactors to seed new runs
  • Saves considerable upstream processing time, space, and cost
