Continuous cell flocculation for recombinant antibody harvesting.

It was demonstrated that stable and efficient continuous flocculation associated with depth filtration can be easily accomplished using tubular reactors and parallelization. Continuous cell separation is essential for the development of fully continuous integrated process trains. This cost-efficient disposable design run in continuous mode significantly reduces facility foot print, process costs and enables great flexbility. © 2017 The Authors.
