At Irvine Scientific we understand the critical role that prototypes play in media development. Through our Express Media Service (EMS), our lab is virtually an extension of yours.
Formulations Supported:
- Customer developed formulations
- Irvine Scientific owned formulation, with or without modifications (e.g., BalanCDTM CHO Feed 1 with high glucose)
- Classical formulations with or without modifications (e.g., RPMI medium 1640 with low NaCl)
The EMS program is ideally suited for scale-down modeling, troubleshooting, formulation development and optimization. The EMS program features:
Unparalleled Service:
- Rapid, yet flexible small-scale media production
- Accessibility to our EMS team to review each formulation
- Express turnaround time, orders shipped within 10 business days or less
Powder and Liquid Formulations:
- Liquid lots from 1L to 200L
- Liquid media can be packaged in bottles or standard bags up to 20L
- All liquid products made with ultrapure deionized water for cell culture
- Powder lots from 1 kg to 25 kg
- EMS milling technology is the same as our large-scale cGMP manufacturing facilities'. This consistency reduces the variability in scaling up.
Raw Material Control
- Whenever possible, the media produced through EMS uses the same high-grade raw materials used in large-scale cGMP production that have been approved by Quality Assurance
- Control and care of the raw materials is the same as within our ISO13485:2003 regulated facilities
QC Testing:
Quality control testing and Spent Media Analysis is available on EMS products, and can be priced and performed upon request. Optional testing includes:
|
o Appearance |
