CyGenics awarded patent on its Cell Culture Spinner Flasks

17-Mar-2006

CyGenics Ltd. announced that its US-based subsidiary, Cytomatrix LLC, had been granted US Patent 6991933, Cell Culture Spinner Flasks. This patent adds to the five already granted to the CyGenics group. A number of other patents are pending.

The patent is for the company's unique starwheel cell culture spinner flasks. These flasks provide an enhanced system for cell growth and improved secreted product yield by improving materials transfer via passive perfusion. The system can produce high concentrations of cells that can be used as targets for extraneous agent interaction such as viruses or stimulating compounds. Cells or modified cells grown in the system can be used to produce higher levels of secreted products while minimizing downstream processing.

The flasks are currently being used for research purposes and under license for small scale manufacture of specialized products.
