WHITE PAPERS AND CASE STUDIES

• Beyond Cool: RFID Disentangles Cryopreservation Storage And Management

  A cryogenic storage facility can face many challenges while maintaining the correct temperatures for tissue samples for stem cell vials, live research material, and fertility specimens. Historically, samples were identified by handwritten or printed labels and more recently, bar coding. When material samples are stored at extremely low temperatures, vials are subject to intense frosting, making traditional identification difficult to read and document. Using a highly durable RFID tag designed for harsh environments with acceptable frequencies, Cryogatt Systems Ltd. worked with HID Global to develop an RFID tagging system to identify and deliver a detailed audit of cryogenically stored items quickly and accurately.

• Pharmaceutical Manufacturer Utilizes Checkweighers To Identify Inaccurately Filled Product

  In no other industry is the need for product quality and process reliability as critical as in the pharmaceutical industry. Sanofi-Aventis is the global leader in core medical areas, such as diabetes/metabolism, the cardiovascular system, thrombosis, the central nervous system, internal medicine, oncology and prevention through progressive vaccines. Checkweighers check vital insulin: in the Injectables Division, where liquid drugs such as different types of insulin or drugs for emergency medicine are produced, the packaged medical compounds are subjected to final checks using a dynamic checkweigher.

• Best Practices For Biopharmaceutical Technology Transfer: Facility Fit And Process Gap Assessments

  During a long, complex journey of drug discovery with many specialized activities involved, technology transfer is an intrinsic part of the successful development, manufacturing, and commercialization of a product. Biopharmaceutical technology transfer requires careful planning and evaluation to meet project timelines for scale up and GMP manufacture.

• The Oncology Workstation With EziDock CSV6 HPAPI Transfer For Superior Personnel And Product Protection

  The Oncology Workstation with EziDock CSV6 HPAPI Transfer was designed to provide personnel and product protection while working with powder substances. It was determined due to the high OEL that a glovebox workstation would best suit the application, and an Ezi-Dock high containment transfer system was used due to its capacity to handle hazardous chemical and pharmaceutical products.

• Sanitaire SBR System Boosts Capacity, Reliability Without Building A New Facility

  Jefferson City, the Capitol of Missouri, has operated a sanitary sewage collection system dating back to the 1800s. The generations of infrastructure included a trickling filter treatment plant that first entered service in 1967 and underwent major upgrades involving screening, primary clarification, and secondary treatment over the course of 1969-77.

• How J.O. Spice Protects Their Brand With Metal Detection Technology

  This spice manufacturer faced a challenge of having to manually lay down larger boxes prior to going through the metal detector. A solution with a tall aperture allowed them to eliminate this step and set up a fully automated packaging line.

• How To Increase The Solubility And Bioavailability With Hot Melt Extrusion?

  When executed properly, HME advances poorly soluble compounds in the development pipeline, without adding delays, cost, or significant post-processing activities, and can scale to commercial manufacturing.

• Double Duty: Aqueduct Brings Power Protection In-House

  Amid the company’s rapid growth, Aqueduct decided to relocate its Waltham, MA headquarters. With the move came a unique opportunity to modernize and redesign its data center from the ground up. As the company transitioned to mostly digital operations in workflow across departments — from accounting to sales — ensuring business uptime became a primary objective.

• How Important Is mmWave To 5G?

  For 5G to deliver high expectations, it must operate across wide contiguous frequency spectrum - only available at mmW frequencies. The frequency bands in the spectrum above 24 GHz can support large bandwidths and high data rates, ideal for increasing the capacity of wireless networks. Anokiwave offers the industry's most complete portfolio of Silicon ICs for mmW 5G and is the trusted choice of Tier-1 and -2 OEMs worldwide.

• Abbottstown Retrofitted A Flow-Through System With An AquaSBR® System To Meet Stringent Effluent Requirements

  The Abbottstown-Paradise Joint Sewer Authority was incorporated in 1973 and utilized a continuous flow activated sludge system with an average daily design flow of 0.21 MGD. At that time the plant was only required to reduce total suspended solids (TSS) and effuent ammonia to required levels to serve the area population of about 2000. Due to urban growth and increased storm flow runoffs, the plant was in need of an expansion and upgrade by the late 1990s. 

• A Deeper Look At Automated Treatment Plant Design

  Design Generator (“DG”) is a web-based, online water facility design engineering platform that enables engineering professionals to rapidly generate preliminary engineering designs for CAS facilities as well as MBR, MBBR, and others. The tool has been developed by leading industry professionals and software development experts to create an easy-to-use, sophisticated wastewater-engineering application.

• Integrated Tools For Upstream Process Intensification: Part II

  Changes to bioprocessing methodologies in the biopharmaceutical industry are being driven by the need for increased speed, a lower cost of goods (COGs) and greater flexibility. Faster development times are required to progress biologics and vaccines more rapidly into clinical development and then to market to improve worldwide accessibility. Continue reading in part 2 of this series how in order for intensified and continuous bioprocessing to deliver on these quality and productivity promises, there is a requirement for intelligently designed products.
