CYTENA’s C.STATION™ and ExcellGene’s CHOExpress® will Reduce Timelines to Generate Clonal Cell Lines
Today, CYTENA, a BICO group company (Nasdaq Stockholm: BICO) and a leading provider of high-precision instruments for handling biological cells, has entered a collaboration agreement with ExcellGene SA, a leading biologics CDMO that manufactures recombinant proteins. Together, the companies will streamline cell line development workflows for highly-efficient monoclonal antibody (mAb) and complex therapeutic protein manufacturing which enables important improvements to the development workflows of the biopharmaceutical industry. As part of the collaboration, ExcellGene is providing its high-performance CHOExpress® system, a proven, high-yield mammalian host cell line for large-scale manufacturing of therapeutic proteins. CYTENA will establish workflows on the new C.STATION – a next generation automated workstation for Cell Line Development. First C.STATIONs will be installed at CYTENA’s biopharmaceutical customers within the next months and delivering already improved workflows with the C.STATION will lead to an even higher demand for this fully automated solution in therapeutic protein manufacturing.
