FAQs on Single-Use Systems, Sterility, and Scale-Up

1. Why choose single-use vessels over reusable systems for suspension cell culture？

Single-use vessels significantly reduce the risk of cross-contamination, eliminate the need for cleaning and sterilization between batches, and streamline workflow for higher operational efficiency. They are also ideal for facilities requiring rapid changeovers and flexible process development.

2. How does a closed system ensure sterility in bioprocessing?

Closed-system bioprocessing keeps all cell culture steps sealed from the external environment, using pre-sterilized connections, filters, and transfer lines. This design minimizes contamination risks and maintains product integrity throughout the entire workflow.

3. What scale can Corning Bioprocess Suspension solutions support?

Corning’s single-use, closed-system vessels and bags accommodate a wide range of volumes—from 50 mL in mini bioreactors to over 50 L in large-scale bioprocess bags. This flexibility enables seamless scale-up from research and development to pilot and full commercial production.

4. Are Corning’s single-use vessels compatible with automated bioprocessing systems?

Yes. Corning designs its vessels with standard connectors and industry-compatible features, making them easy to integrate with automated cell culture and bioprocessing platforms for both upstream and downstream applications.
