Bioreactors and fermentors

Sartorius Stedim Biotech supplies the widest range of bioreactors and fermentors for lab, pilot and process scale applications. The BIOSTAT® product series includes single-use as well as autoclavable and in-situ sterilisable systems.

Configurable single-use systems for biomanufacturing

FlexAct® configurable single-use systems enable you to custom-configure single-use solutions for entire biomanufacturing steps such as buffer preparation (BP), cell harvest (CH), virus inactivation (VI), media preparation (MP) and virus removal (VR). The configurable single-use systems offer the widest variety of configuration options and allow for complete control of practically any step in upstream and downstream processing.

Liquid filters for the pharma industry

Liquid filters are available in several designs; choose between sterile filters, prefilters, and membrane filters. Our filter capsules and filter cartridges are suitable for several applications from screening in cell harvest and clarification to bioburden and particle reduction. Sartorius liquid filters are the product of choice for the pharma and food and beverage industries.

Filter integrity testing systems

Filter integrity testing is an essential procedure to detect defective filter cartridges and to avoid their use in the process. The Sartocheck® family offers solutions for all customer needs. Different devices and a comprehensive accessory package allow the highest flexibility in filter integrity testing.

Single-use bioprocess bags

Sartorius offers single-use bioprocess bags for the preparation, storage and transport of biopharmaceutical solutions, intermediates and final bulk products. Also available is a complete range of aseptic transfer bags for the aseptic transfer of components into clean rooms, isolators or RABS and for contained transfer of potent powders. Single-use bio process bags from Sartorius Stedim Biotech provide a disposable alternative to traditional glass, stainless steel and rigid plastic carboys.

Membrane chromatography units

Membrane chromatography for the chromatographic purification of proteins and vaccines from complex mixtures is a key process step in pharmaceutical production to ensure high purity and high yield. Membrane adsorbers allow much faster flow rates than conventional columns, resulting in 75% time savings and typically 80% to 90% reduced buffer consumption. The membrane chromatography capsules are easy and convenient to use to advance your everyday work.

Containers and rack systems and drug delivery systems

Containers and rack systems are available for the storage and processing of biopharmaceutical fluids, fluid management control in the biopharmaceutical process or the secure and convenient shipment of sterile bulk pharmaceutical fluids. Drug delivery systems are ready to use and suitable for the preparation of total parenteral nutrition, among other applications.

Laboratory balances

Sartorius provides laboratory balances for professional weighing, including ultra-microbalances, microbalances, analytical balances, precision balances and gold and carat balances that excel in speed and accuracy and which are manufactured with years of experience in mechatronics.

Lab water systems

Lab water systems are suited for routine applications like washing or flushing of laboratory equpiment as well as for critical applications that require ultra-pure water. They also can be utilised for atomic absorption, ion chromatography or the preparation of buffers, media and reagents. The lab water systems are split into type 1 or type 2 ultra-pure water systems, reverse osmosis systems and water softening systems so that they cover the complete demand for lab water.

Ultrafiltration devices

The Sartorius product range also includes ultrafiltration devices for protein concentration and buffer exchange in laboratory scale. All product groups have unique features to be optimally equipped for the main applications in their volume range. Furthermore, you can choose between various ultrafilter membrane discs for sample concentration; e.g. in stirred cells.

Chromatography devices

Various chromatography devices are available, such as spin columns, capsules, multiwell plates and strips, vacuum manifolds and syringe filter units or membranes. Typical applications are concentration, purification and desalting of peptides, polishing, flow-to-waste and analyte collection, protein purification and sample preparation.

Chromatography devices with ion exchange, metal chelate, Protein A and G, Anti-HSA and C18 matrices offer a comprehensive portfolio for protein capture and purification.
