SAFC is the world's
leading product and service supplier for Cell Culture R&D solutions.
These include novel animal component-free media (for CHO, hybridoma, HEK
293 cells, stem cells) for protein or antibody expression, gene therapy
and tissue engineering applications. Our track record of proven performance,
combined with state-of-the-art R&D facilities, cutting edge manufacturing
technology and dedicated professionals clearly demonstrate that you can
depend on us for high quality Cell Culture products and solutions to ensure
your continued success.
FDA-registered and cGMP-compliant, SAFC's cell culture facilities are designed
specifically for the large-scale production of cell culture products: including
powder media, liquid media and custom
manufacturing.
| Overview |
| |
Powder manufacturing area features
state-of-the art air classifier milling (ACM) and verticle ribbon
blending technology in a validated continuous flow process that provides
consistency, flexibility, speed and quality assurance that is not
acheivable with other technologies. |
| |
ACM technology permits tighter
control of particle sizes and rapid, continuous processing of powders. |
| |
Verticle ribbon blending provides
flexibility in batch sizes from 40-4000 kg, and is validated in blending
of trace components to the ppm range. |
| |
Liquid manufacturing area includes
dedicated space for custom liquid formulation |
| |
Dedicated custom manufacturing
and bag filling areas that are supported by two class 100 cleanrooms |
| |
Up to 64 bags can be filled simultaneously
to reduce handling, which results in shorter lead times and faster
delivery |
| |
Media batches up to 10,000 liters |
| |
Complete line of bags available, including
10 L, 20 L, 50 L, 100 L, 200 L, and 500 L |
| |
Complete traceability and documentation is
provided to assure our customers of consistent performance in the
final product |
| |
Amino acid blending |
| |
Formulate serum-free and animal component-free
media for commercially important cell lines (e.g., CHO, NSO,HEK-293,
MDBK/MDCK, hybridomas, etc.) |
| |
Qualify and characterize raw materials as
part of our Value Added Materials Program, which are the building
blocks of our custom media |
| |
Develop, optimize and manufacture custom
formulations with customer cell lines as required |
