From bottleneck to breakthrough: Rethinking downstream processing with single-use separation

As cell densities and titres continue to rise, harvest and clarification are increasingly becoming the limiting operations during scale-up and commercial manufacturing.

This webinar explores the emerging gap between upstream intensification and conventional clarification technologies. Through customer experiences, published industry studies and application work, we will discuss how CultureOne™ single-use disc-stack centrifugation enables robust harvest of highly intensified cultures at approximately 30 to 200 million CHO cells/mL (6–40% PCV) - while maintaining high product recovery, scalable performance and gentle product handling.

Speakers

You will hear from Dr. Aysha Kamran, Single-Use High Speed Separation Expert, and Ivan Gitardi, Business Development Manager UK&I. Together, they bring hands-on experience from single-use separation projects across biologics manufacturing and will share practical insights on what works, what to watch for, and how to successfully harvest intensified cell cultures.
