The Kbiotech Single-Use Bioreactor is a plug-and-play bioprocessing platform designed to eliminate cleaning and sterilisation workflows. By using sterile, gamma-irradiated disposable vessels (100 mL to 10 L), it addresses the critical need for rapid turnaround and zero contamination risk in cultivated meat R&D and seed train expansion.
Built on the modular BioBook architecture, this system enables setup in under 45 minutes, significantly accelerating process development timelines. The platform supports up to 12 parallel vessels, each with RFID-based recognition that automatically configures process parameters. This approach removes the need for cleaning validation, reducing operational overheads and making it an ideal solution for labs transitioning from research to GMP-ready pilot production.
Despite the disposable format, the system maintains industrial-grade control through FPGA PLC architecture and SmartBioFlex™ SCADA software. It provides independent regulation of pH, dissolved oxygen, and temperature for each vessel. Magnetic impeller drives ensure efficient mixing and gas mass transfer—essential for maintaining high-density avian or mammalian cell cultures—without compromising the sterile boundary.
The system is compatible with advanced perfusion modules, supporting high-density cultures exceeding 50 million cells per millilitre. Each pre-sterilised vessel includes integrated optical sensors and aseptic connectors, ensuring a fully closed system. Full 21 CFR Part 11 compliance provides the secure data management required for regulatory-aligned food safety documentation.
Suitable for rapid process development, media screening, and contamination-sensitive seed train expansion. The Kbiotech Single-Use platform is the efficient choice for cultivated meat producers prioritising speed and process security.
