Evaluating your Technology Platform

Choosing the right single-use bioreactor platform

When selecting a bioreactor, you can choose stainless steel or single-use technologies, depending on your biomanufacturing requirements. The bioreactor is a key component of your bioprocessing workflow and should be regarded as a strategic asset. It is important that this core technology is carefully chosen, specified, designed, and supported, both now and in the future.

Stainless steel bioreactors, at capacities of 10,000 to 20,000 liters or greater, are still the preferred option when producing large-scale products. But single-use bioreactors, typically 1000 or 2000 liters, are quickly becoming the preferred option for small-scale production.
