Cell culture is the process by which cells are grown under controlled conditions, generally outside of their natural environment. Cell cultures can be initiated from normal, embryonic or malignant tissue by aseptic collection from the animal host. In some cases, physical or enzymatic methods are used to disrupt the cells to prepare suspensions of single cells.
Animal cell culture technology has advanced significantly during the last few decades and is now generally considered to be a reliable, robust and relatively mature technology. A range of biotherapeutics is currently synthesized using cell culture methods in large-scale manufacturing facilities that produce products for both commercial use and clinical studies.
Using mammalian cell cultures, proteins can be produced in their effective form (quarternary structure). And, compared with microbial production in bacteria and yeasts, downstream processing is significantly reduced. In addition, infection risks in the production of human proteins can be avoided.
The robust implementation of mammalian cell technology requires a number of key variables to be optimized, including the culture media and bioreactor conditions, appropriate cell lines (CHO, BHK, hybrid and insect cells), low operating costs, high productivity rates, efficient process control and, above all, quality.
Successful implementation also requires appropriate strategies for process development, scale-up and characterization, and the validation of robust procedures that comply with current regulations.
Particular attention must be paid to the effects of external influences such as shear forces on the behavior and productivity of the cells. The hydrohermetic inlet developed by GEA reduces shear forces to a minimum, an innovation that has been tested and published in co-operation with the University of Bielefeld (Germany).

I separatori di GEA sono progettati per applicazioni a base liquida. Utilizzano la forza centrifuga per separare sospensioni composte da due o più fasi di densità diverse; possono cioè essere utilizzati per la separazione liquido-liquido, la separazione liquido-liquido-solido o la separazione liquido-solido. Separano miscele liquide con la stessa...

Il cambiamento climatico e la crescita della popolazione mondiale mettono sotto pressione l'industria alimentare, che consuma molta energia, per nutrire più persone senza impattare ulteriormente sul pianeta. George Shepherd, Global Technical Sustainability Manager di GEA, spiega come GEA utilizzi il proprio know-how ingegneristico per aiutare le aziende di trasformazione a produrre in modo più sostenibile, aumentando al contempo la produttività.
The world's population is growing and with it demand for milk. Dairy is an essential component of many global diets. However, its production can be resource-intensive and impact the environment. GEA’s Christian Müller, Senior Director Sustainability Farm Technologies, sheds light on how technological innovations powered by GEA make milk production more efficient and profitable.
Ogni bevanda e alimento sicuro è una vittoria contro invisibili minacce microbiche, il risultato di una battaglia condotta sulla scorta di un secolo di progettazione di processi igienici. Con oltre 100 anni di know-how ingegneristico e di progettazione igienica, GEA stabilisce lo standard industriale per attrezzature di lavorazione che proteggono gli alimenti e salvano vite.
