Single-use separator for cell harvesting
In pharmaceutical production, achieving high yields of cell cultures while minimizing contamination risks is crucial. Traditional methods often involve complex filtration processes and laborious cleaning protocols, which can be time-consuming and inefficient.
Single-use separation with minimal preparation time
The GEA kytero® single-use Separator is designed to streamline cell harvesting in pharmaceutical settings. It eliminates the need for sterilization and cleaning-in-place processes, allowing for quick, plug-and-produce operation. The system captures up to 99% of solids for maximum yield, tested on mammalian cells and E. coli. The compact design fits seamlessly into any pharma cleanroom, reducing the required filter area significantly. All necessary connections and components are included for easy setup, and the disposable nature of the separator means you can switch batches by simply replacing the bowl cartridge, bags, and hoses. The GEA kytero® also features the GEA breezeDrive® contact-free drive system, ensuring clean and efficient handling. The supplier, GEA, provides options to test the separator under real conditions to demonstrate its efficiency and ease of use.
