Univessel® SU 10 L - Exhaust filter heater

The Univessel^® SU 10 L is designed to support the full range of mammalian cell culture applications at the bench scale while offering seamless scale-up from process development to commercial manufacturing.

Enhanced productivity

The single-use vessels arrive irradiated and ready-to-use, shortening setup and bioreactor turnaround times while minimizing contamination risk. The vessel accommodates working volumes from 2.5 to 10 L (for Essential & Perfusion Variants) and from 4.3 to 10L (for Cell Therapy Variant), supporting flexible operation.

Optimized scalability

Univessel^® SU 10 L vessels have geometric designs and scale-up ratios consistent with Ambr^® and Biostat STR^® systems. This ensures standardized scaling, accelerating process development activities and mitigating risk during technology transfer.

Specialized designs

The vessel is available in three application-specific designs to support different process requirements.

• Univessel^® SU 10 L Essential: A stirred-tank reactor for standard mammalian cell culture, featuring optimized mixing and gas exchange.
• Univessel^® SU 10 L Perfusion: A perfusion-ready vessel equipped with a dedicated port and micro-sparger for intensified processing.
• Univessel^® SU 10 L Cell Therapy: A vessel equipped with an elephant-ear impeller designed to deliver efficient mixing even at low power input, making it well suited for cell therapy applications.

Manufacturing readiness

Manufacturing-compliant options enable low-volume clinical and commercial manufacturing. GMP-environment vessels are supported by a high level of quality documentation, including extractables and leachables data and validation guides.
