Thermo Fisher develops single use chromatography system for bioprocessing
Thermo Fisher Scientific has introduced the Thermo Scientific HyPeak Chromatography System, which is the first single-use chromatography system for bioprocessing offered by the company.
The equipment is applicable for use in therapeutic and vaccine development.
Other commercially available single-use chromatography system options are limited in their scalability, said the developer, but the HyPeak Chromatography Systems offers a wide operational flow range through a combination of pumps and fluid transfer assemblies that enable scalability from process development to cGMP manufacturing.
The company highlighted the equipment's key benefits:
- Increased scalability: "Available as a single system for process development and production scale for reduced capital expenses and a more efficient facility footprint."
- Higher product yield: "Addresses traditional chromatography challenges, where valve and FTA designs may result in buffer holdover, resulting in lower yields."
- Simplified tech transfer: "Built on the widely used Emerson DeltaV automation platform to enable upstream and downstream data integration and the TruChrom application provides a versatile user interface."
