The MiniBRx® 0.25 multi-bioreactors are high throughput, perfusion-enabled automated bioreactor systems for process development with up to 16 fully-featured single-use 100ml/250ml mini-scale bioreactors.

MiniBRx®0.25

This system integrates Ready-to-Plus and easily connects bioreactors with flexible and user-friendly software. It enables scientists to manage many more experiments at the same time while reducing the costs per experiment. Therefore, MiniBRx®0.25 is an accurate solutions, and it cost-effectively replicates bioreactor conditions. It can serve as a microscale model for a wide range of upstream processes, such as Perfusion clone selection, process characterization, and process optimization studies.
