Bioprocess Equipment

Bioprocessing is a growing area within the field of pharmaceutical research, development, and manufacturing. Specific, targeted enzymatic activity (sometimes requiring the implementation of cofactors) is the foundation of production by bioprocessing. Bioprocessing equipment encompasses bioreactor vessels and all related equipment necessary for maintaining a streamlined reaction, ideally within a sterile environment. Bioprocessing is designed to produce therapeutic substances by continuous or batch processing. Bioprocessing, specifically, the creation of targeted therapeutics, is developing into a very specialized, growing segment within biopharmaceutical research and manufacturing. Therefore, there is considerable interest in creating custom bioprocessing systems or employing single-use technology to reduce cleaning and production costs.
