Sigma-Aldrich Corporation today announced that SAFC® Commercial, the Company’s business unit providing products and services for use in regulated pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical applications, has launched the EX-CELL® Advanced™ product line. Designed to address the needs of an evolving industry where speed to market is paramount, the new product line provides for increased performance, streamlines regulatory compliance, and offers the supply chain security needed in today’s biopharmaceutical environment.
The first EX-CELL Advanced product is the high-performing batch media system developed for a range of widely used industrial CHO cell lines, including SAFC’s proprietary CHOZN® cell line. During rigorous testing, the EX-CELL Advanced CHO Fed-batch System outperformed other commercially available equivalents by displaying significantly higher titers. Robust scale up and effortless adaptation offers those in biopharmaceutical development the opportunity to get their process up and running quickly and efficiently. Protein quality, another vital consideration in the development process, remains uncompromised.
“At SAFC we recognize our customers’ needs are constantly changing”, said Deb Stutz, Director of Biopharm Marketing. “Our team has utilized unique expertise in raw material science, understanding of process knowledge and decades of experience in cGMP manufacturing in development of the new EX-CELL Advanced line. We are delighted to launch this product in response to market needs for new levels of speed and performance, while continuing to provide the confidence of a secure and transparent supply chain.”
