  | Optimize your Downstream Operations

| | | | | | new productseKnowledge baseapplication notesbook reviewwebmark your calendars! | |  Today's biopharmaceutical processes rely on innovative concepts and technologies to manage challenges in a commercial environment that simultaneously demands higher productivity, robust quality, and lower costs. Although biomanufacturing has become generic, robust, streamlined and efficient in general, the productivity gap between up- and downstream processing is widening and purification processes are still regarded as too complex.
Sartorius Stedim Biotech is devoted to providing solutions that contribute to efficiency and flexibility while also debottlenecking biomanufacturing operations.
With this newsletter we highlight innovative products tailormade for downstream operations focussing on the removal of process contaminants such as DNA, host cell proteins, viruses and - often overlooked - water. Information on recent publications and upcoming meetings are included and we hope that this compendium is appreciated by the end-user in the pharma-/biotech industry.
Any feedback on our services are welcome whether via email, phone or personally.
With best regards,
Dr. Uwe Gottschalk
