Cultursil
High Yield, Expanded Surface Area Cell Culture Bags for Cell Production


CulturSilT is a new high performance cell culture bag with a textured inner surface that significantly enhances both cell number and productivity. Designed as a small scale simple to use bioreactor CulturSilT offers significant advantages over hollow fiber and other more complex bioreactor systems both in terms of cost and ease of use. CulturSilT requires no specialized equipment, as the product can be used with existing CO2 incubators. CulturSilT can achieve higher cell densities than conventional cell culture products with a 50ml bag reaching a cell density of over 108 cells. The cells can easily be visualized on the CulturSilT bag face using an inverted microscope.

CulturSilT is inert and resistant to biological and chemical attack facilitating easy use in handling with two luer lock ports for the addition/removal of nutrients or waste. The textured surface of CulturSilT provides an open cupulated structure as a substrate for attachment and growth of cells.  This consequently protects the cells from shear forces generated during perfusion of the culture while enabling the easy recovery of the cells by standard enzymatic procedures.

CulturSilT is available in two standard sizes.
. 50ml bag with a working volume of 30 - 50ml
. 250ml bag with a working volume of 150 - 250ml

Bags are individually leak tested, gamma irradiated and are certified as being non pyrogenic (less than 0.5 EU/ml). They are individually foil wrapped in boxes, 10 bags per box.

Storage conditions : +5 to +37ēC Dry
Usage conditions : Standard CO2 incubator with a relative humidity greater than 85%
