As the building block to living organisms, cells make up our bodies and perform a wide variety of different functions, all while being the smallest unit of the body. Depending on the tissue type, cells can be more or less specialized.

Single-use manufacturing is the production of a finished product that is designed to be used once. In the biopharmaceutical industry, single-use manufacturing is an important and growing part of the industry.

One of the major technologies introduced to the biotech industry in recent years has been artificial intelligence. Artificial intelligence (AI) is technology that utilizes human patterns and behaviors to mimic their problem solving in order to perform tasks like answering questions or providing relevant information.

Hospitals face rising patient numbers and limited staff. To better manage these pressures, several Danish healthcare facilities implemented INSIGHT.

Venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) has become a vital therapeutic option in managing severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) when conventional interventions fail. The American Thoracic Society (ATS) in 2024 and the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine (ESICM) in 2023 released updated guidelines addressing the role of VV-ECMO. This article provides an overview of both guidelines, outlining their common ground and key distinctions without evaluating or favoring one approach over another.

In pharmaceutical production, maintaining equipment uptime is essential for operational efficiency and process safety. Particularly in cleanroom environments, unplanned downtime can disrupt workflows, increase overhead costs, and in some cases contribute to delays in drug availability.

Modern operating rooms are high-stakes environments where every minute counts. An unexpected issue with critical equipment like the operating table can disrupt schedules and even jeopardize patient safety.

During sterile manufacturing, human operators pose the greatest risk for product contamination. To reduce microbiological and particulate contamination risks, aseptic techniques typically rely on either laminar flow equipment used within a cleanroom environment or barrier technology. Laminar flow equipment includes laminar flow hoods and biosafety cabinets (Class I, Class II, and Class III). Barrier technology includes restricted access barrier systems (RABS) and isolators.

作業効率の向上とスタッフの負担軽減という2つの課題に直面していた外部滅菌代行業者は、滅菌再生処理ワークフローのデジタル化を図りました。

オランダのデルフト工科大学で、教授と博士課程の学生が進化工学の新しいソリューションを求めていました。石油化学製品の多くを植物由来の材料に置き換えようとする中で、遺伝子組み換え細胞の研究を改善するためには、進化研究に特有の課題に対応できるような堅牢で柔軟性のある自動バイオリアクターの設備が必要でした。

あらかじめプログラムされた自動洗浄プロセスにより、マルチユースバイオリアクターの洗浄にベストプラクティスを採用しています。これにより、洗浄プロセスを検証し、バイオリアクターの滅菌準備が整っていることを確認できます。

富士レビオでは、事前検証済みの新しい洗浄ラックを活用して、マルチユースバイオリアクターの標準洗浄プロセスを作成することにより、作業時間を節約しながらより多くのがん診断用抗体を生産できるようになりました。
