Applications

Organism

Applikon bioreactors can be used to cultivate numerous different organisms. In the following pages, we take a closer look at some of these organisms. Mammalian cells and microorganisms are the most commonly used cells in biotechnological processes. However, other cell types such as stem cells, plant and algae or insect cells are also used. 

Mammalian Cells

Mammalian cells have become the linchpin in the production of recombinant glycoproteins such as hormones, enzymes, cytokines, and antibodies, all of which play pivotal roles in human therapy. 

Stem Cells

Stem cells represent a pioneering achievement in biomedical research and therapy, offering unprecedented opportunities for regenerative medicine, including tissue engineering and the treatment of various diseases.

Microbials

In the field of industrial microbiology, the cultivation of microorganisms through bioreactor fermentation stands as a cornerstone technique for producing a broad spectrum of microbial products, from antibiotics, biofuels to food and beverages

Plant Cells and Algae

At the forefront of sustainable biotechnology, the cultivation of plant cells and algae within bioreactors presents a revolutionary approach to producing valuable biochemicals, pharmaceuticals, and biofuels

Insect Cells

In the rapidly evolving landscape of biotechnology, the Baculovirus Expression Vector System (BEVS) with insect cells stands out as a versatile and powerful tool for protein production.

End Products

Applikon bioreactors are used to produce a wide range of products. They are used in research and development, optimization, scale-up studies as well as in production. The reactors support a wide spectrum of process forms such as perfusion, fed-batch, batch or chemostat processes. From biotherapeutics and cellular agriculture products to cell and gene therapeutics, everything is possible. 

Cellular Agriculture

Cellular agriculture represents a groundbreaking shift in food production, centering around the concept of cellular food solutions. This innovative field harnesses biotechnology to cultivate animal and plant cells for food, directly in a controlled environment, bypassing traditional farming methods.

Biotherapeutics

Discover biologicals, where innovation meets healthcare to revolutionize treatment methodologies and patient care. Biotherapeutics include a broad range of biologically derived products, such as monoclonal antibodies (mABs), viral vectors, and vaccines, each playing a pivotal role in targeted disease treatment and prevention.

Cell and Gene Therapy

Cell and Gene Therapy represents the pinnacle of modern medical science, offering revolutionary approaches to treating diseases at their origin. These therapies harness the power of the body's own cells and the fundamental instructions within our DNA, promising treatments for a wide range of conditions, from genetic disorders to cancer, and beyond.
