Cell culture clarification with minimum effort
The GEA kytero® series consists of single use disk stack centrifuges designed for efficient, gentle cell harvesting.
Our single use centrifuges for gentle cell treatment ensure highly viable cell harvesting and maximum performance.
The single use units are ready in minutes for process testing or small-scale production. No cleaning required, no special training.
The space-saving GEA kytero® skids and tabletop units fit with ease in any cleanroom.
Transfer test results from R&D to production with no effort, using the same state-of-the-art disk stack technology throughout.
GEA kytero® 10
Experience the first tabletop centrifuge offering superior disk stack separation – easy to operate even in the tightest cleanroom spaces!
Designed for 1–10 l bioreactors, the GEA kytero® 10 is a breakthrough for small-scale R&D facilities and biotech producers looking to achieve efficient cell harvesting and product recovery with maximum yield and high cell viability – all with a remarkably low-risk investment.
Maximum performance in tabletop format:
A world-first from GEA.
GEA kytero® 500
Designed to provide small or medium-scale facilities with minimum-effort fed-batch and perfusion separation, this compact, mobile skid unit processes fermentation broth from bioreactors up to 500 l.
The single use concept with aseptic, clip-on aseptic bowl and pathways reduces preparation time to minutes – no SIP/CIP required. Cutting-edge disk stack separation ensures superior efficiency, yield, and cell viability.
Efficient cell harvesting in a snap:
GEA kytero® 2000
Designed to extend single use handling efficiency to medium or larger-scale facilities, this compact, mobile skid unit processes fermentation broth from bioreactors up to 2,000 l for fed-batch and perfusion separation.
The single use concept with aseptic, clip-on aseptic bowl and pathways reduces preparation time to minutes – no SIP/CIP required. Cutting-edge disk stack separation ensures superior efficiency, yield, and cell viability.
Maximum capacity with single use simplicity:
Single use centrifuges avoid extensive cleaning and validation and reduce dependency on filtration.
100% biocontainment-proof, closed pathways and contactfree Breezedrive® system minimize risks and ensure safe, leakage-free operation.
All GEA kytero® machines can be operated in fed-batch harvesting and/or high-yield perfusion mode to realize diverse production strategies.
GEA kytero® units efficiently separate pharma compounds, food proteins or gene therapy cells from mammalian cell or bacterial fermentation broth.
The operation efficiency of these single use units enables faster R&D and production results.
The GEA kytero® concept offers a low-investment gateway to the next generation of process and development.

O processo inovador da GEA representa um marco no pré-tratamento de biocombustíveis, como óleo vegetal hidrotratado e combustível de aviação sustentável. Eliminando o processo de clareamento, os fabricantes se beneficiam de um potencial de economia significativo: custos operacionais mais de 50% menores e até 12% menos emissões de CO2.
El cambio climático y el aumento de la población mundial ejercen una presión cada vez mayor sobre la industria alimentaria, que consume mucha energía, para alimentar a más personas sin afectar aún más al planeta. George Shepherd, Global Technical Sustainability Manager de GEA, explica cómo GEA utiliza sus conocimientos de ingeniería para ayudar a los procesadores a producir de forma más sostenible y, al mismo tiempo, aumentar la productividad.
