TAP Biosystems and Merck & Co., Inc. Double Triumph at BPI 2014 Awards
At the BioProcess International Awards, TAP Biosystems and Merck won the ‘Best Collaboration Award’ beating off stiff competition from other partnerships including Invetech and Janssen. TAP Biosystems and Merck also won the ‘Best Technology Application — Upstream Award’ for the ambr250 automated mini bioreactor system against other excellent products such as the Xcellerex™ XDR-50 MO fermenter system and the MaxCyte® STX™ Scalable Transfection System.
Mwai Ngibuini, ambr250 Product Manager stated: “The main aim of our collaboration with Merck was to develop a simple to set up, single-use mini bioreactor system which has the versatility to replicate traditional bioreactors and fermenters for culturing mammalian and microbial cells. To achieve this we listened carefully to the bioprocessing experts that would use the system, as well as the context into which it would be placed and then worked tirelessly to deliver their vision.”
