    Abstract: The present invention refers to new species of an ion exchange adsorber which is suitable for the separation of host cell proteins (HCPs), antibody fragments and low molecular weight substances from solutions containing antibodies. The invention especially refers to a process for purifying biological samples by separating biomolecules of interest and impurities, comprising steps of contacting a sample with said chromatography media consisting of fibers, said fibers having imparted thereon functionality enabling ion exchange chromatography and/or hydrophobic interaction.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a removable pneumatic connector, comprises a body having a plurality of bores passing through, each bore surrounded by a sealing member on an inner surface of the body. A plurality of gas lines may be placed within a corresponding bore. A vacuum port is disposed on the inner surface of the body, and an outer seal on the inner surface of the body surrounds the sealing members and the vacuum port. A vacuum line may be placed within the vacuum port, and configured to deliver negative pressure to the vacuum port. A vacuum holding area is created in the volume between the outer seal and each of the sealing members when the inner surface of the body is placed against a substrate. When the vacuum line is activated, a vacuum is created within the vacuum holding area, creating a positive seal between the body and the substrate.

    Abstract: A biocontainer film enhanced with an abrasion resistant or “cut-proof” substrate. Such substrates can be combined with current biocontainer materials, via various techniques of embedding, coextrusion or laminating, to maintain the cleanliness and low extractables already validated for biotech manufacturing. The substrate of choice may be constructed from materials known to be more resistant to abrasion and sharp razor type cuts or from materials oriented in such a way to prevent puncture to occur. The new substrate must also be flexible to allow for typical folding as demonstrated by current packaging practices. The new substrate may be constructed from materials other than polymers such as metal, glass or carbon or in combination with polymers. A non-constrained pressure test is also disclosed.

    Abstract: A micro-incubator manifold for improved microfluidic configurations and systems and methods of manufacture and operation for a manifold and automated microfluidic systems are disclosed. Various embodiments relate to assays, systems, and/or devices for culturing cells or other biologic material in controlled environments and are applicable to related fields generally using microfluidic systems. Particular embodiments involve configurations that can be used with various standard automated handling systems, with active or passive loading and perfusion of medium and to provide high-throughput multi-assay automated systems for culturing, viewing, and analyzing cell growth, invasion, movement, chemotaxis or other properties. More specifically, specific embodiments relate to heat control systems for microfluidic culture plates and other automated systems for culture plates.

    Abstract: A number of novel improved microfluidic configurations and systems and methods of manufacture and operation. In one embodiment, three wells are used for independent cell culture systems in a cell culture array. In a second aspect, artificial sinusoids with artificial epithelial barriers are provided with just one (optionally shared or multiplexed) fluidic inlet and one (optionally shared or multiplexed) fluidic output, where the medium output also functions as a cellular input. A pneumatic cell loader combined with other components provides a fully automated cell culture system. Magnetic alignment of plate molds provides advantages and ease of molded manufacture.
