Michiel Ultee, Ph.D., Chief Scientific Officer of Laureate Biopharma (now part of Gallus Biopharmaceuticals), talks about some lessons learned from some 20 years of applications of single-use technologies in biopharmaceutical processes.Single-use bioreactors are much smaller, giving the user more flexible space options than traditional stainless steel tanks, and, overtime, the effect of plastics on growing cells have become more clear.
