Integrated into Allegro 2D Single-Use
Systems for Mixing Applications
2D single-use systems have been widely implemented throughout biopharmaceutical processes in many fluid management applications. The main drivers for this are improving operational flexibility, eliminating cleaning and cleaning validation, improving safety, and ultimately reducing costs by removing non-value added steps from the process and shortening drug development time. Single-use technologies and systems are now available for more advanced applications, such as tangential flow filtration for concentration, diafiltration, and in-process mixing.
