Scale-X™ Bioreactor Seed Amplification Enhancement Application Note
111 1 Introduction
(1) (2) (3-6) (7).
required to prepare a 600 m² fixed-bed bioreactor inoculum using plastic culture vessels (T-bottles and multilayer vessels).
Assumptions: 1) Inoculation density of 3x104 for plastic culture vessels, 1x104 for large-scale nitro 600 bioreactors, 2) harvest yields of 2x105 cells/cm² for plastic culture vessels, and 3) 632 cm²
for each multilayer vessel (MT) surface area.

Overview of the cell harvesting protocol for the scale-X bioreactorCells are expanded in a scale-X bioreactor for 4-6 days (1
).
On harvest day, rinse the bioreactor (2) and then fill and incubate with enzyme solution for 20-25 min (3).
Subsequently, the bioreactor is transferred to the harvest module while applying vibration and drainage (4
).
Finally, rinse is performed for cell recovery (5
).
Steps 1-3 are performed
using a bioreactor mounted on the scale-X hydro/carbo controller.
For steps 4-5, these bioreactors are transferred to the harvest module

Figure 5.
Process economy for large-scale viral production based on adherent cells, seed amplification chain strengtheningThe overall cost estimate
was calculated by comparing processes using plastic culture vessels and using scale-X carbo 30, inoculated with a 600 m² fixed-bed bioreactor at 1x104 cells/cm².
The results include only the cost
of the seed amplification phase.
The cost
of continuous unit operations was not covered in this study.
The key assumptions used are detailed
in the Materials and Methods section.
