Key Applications in Cell Culture - Regenerative Medicine & Cell Therapy

Cell-IQ can be used for a wide range of imaging applications, quality control of growth studies for stem cell colonies, monitoring stem cell differentiation, tracking the development of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells) and gene expression studies. The system has also been used for the development of methods for clinical use of stem cells.

The Karolinska Institute’s Division of Obstetrics and Gynaecology is using Cell-IQ to investigate mechanisms of infertility and oocyte maturation, as well as for development and characterisation of human embryonic stem cell lines.
Researchers at the Weatherall Institute of Molecular Medicine, Oxford, are using Cell-IQ to study multipotent live cells during differentiation. The Institute is a world leader in translational medical research and, in this project, the Molecular Haematology Unit aims to understand the signalling pathways involved in haematopoiesis.

CompacT SelecT has been chosen by a number of organisations for large scale expansion of cells, including mesenchymal and embryonic stem cells, for research, as well as for development programs that intend to use automated cell culture for production of material for cell therapies. The CompacT format offers walk-away automation in small footprint system that could be fitted into most laboratories in a space similar to a standard TC hood. Most adherent mammalian cell lines can be easily grow in the system, from standard CHO stable cell lines to embryonic stem cells, with minimal change from the standard manual flask-based processing.

CompacT Cellbase is used for maintenance and expansion of cells for output in flasks or harvested suspensions.

ITI Life Sciences chose CompacT SelecT to develop a consistent bioprocess for manufacturing high-quality undifferentiated human embryonic stem (hES) cells
Stem Cell Sciences (SCS) chose CompacT SelecT to culture several different human and mouse stem cell lines for supply to the world’s top pharmaceutical companies

CellCelector is being successfully used in a number of universities and research facilities in Europe, harvesting stem cells to support research programmes. This walk away system allows researchers to set parameters for cell or colony types they want (including size, proximity to other colonies or roundness) and the picking tool on the robotic arm gently picks and dispenses cells into a microplate well.

Cellmate has been installed in over 80 sites around the world for batch production of biologics, process development and research. Cellmate is used for producing large quantities of cells for regenerative medicine and other cell therapies. Cellmate allows the flask based (T flasks and roller bottles) manual culture processes to be scaled up from research to production without process change shortening development times, reducing infrastructure requirements and simplifying validation for products that are difficult or impractical to transition in to large scale bioreactor production

Avigen chose Cellmate to help manufacture an adeno-associated viral vectored gene therapy product to be used in clinical trials
