Biopharmaceutical fluid management products

Considering new biopharmaceutical fluid management products for your company, such as bioprocess containers? 

The biopharmaceutical field depends heavily on fluid management to enhance their daily workflows and better their medical products.

Keep reading to see what our experts have to say about biopharmaceutical fluid management and how our bioprocess containers can elevate your workflow.

What is fluid management?

In the bioproduction industry, fluid management, also known as a fluid management system is a series of procedures and equipment used to prepare, handle, and regulate the transfer of liquids around your biopharmaceutical facility. 

• Fluid surveillance – Tools used to track fluid movement, volume, and pressure.

• Fluid collection/disposal – Systems that handle waste liquids securely.

• Process equipment – Parts used to facilitate fluid flow, such as single-use tubing, bioprocessing bags, and mixers.

• Analytical tools – Data analytics platforms can also be incorporated to provide key insights into your fluid management workflow.

• Storage units – Bioprocess containers to store and protect fluid media bags.

Fluid management systems help to ensure the control and transfer of essential fluid media  – these liquids include but aren’t limited to:

• Culture mediums
• Bioreactor feed
• Chromatography solutions
• Buffers and reagents
• Cleaning/sterilisation fluids
• Product fractions

Why is fluid management important?

Fluid management greatly impacts the effectiveness of your daily operations – it’s also vital to reduce the risk in your bioprocess in terms of product quality, potency, and safety.

With efficient fluid management, you can prevent contamination and ensure controlled dispensing so your workflow is as cost-effective and precise as possible. 

Single-use bags in fluid management

Single-use bioprocess bags are used within the manufacturing workflow due to several factors. 

Firstly, equipment within fluid management must possess the necessary mechanical and chemical properties, such as flexibility, durability, and solvent compatibility, to reduce the danger of leakage. Plastic single-use 3D bioprocessing bags boast these properties, making them a great fit for your workflow.

Secondly, these fluid handling bags and their components are used once and discarded, which reduces contamination risks between batches as the fluid track doesn’t need to be sterilised.

However, these bioprocess bags need to be stored safely and correctly – this is where reusable bioprocess containers come in.

How bioprocess containers can aid in fluid management

Bioprocess containers are secondary packaging units that play a critical role in fluid management systems, helping to safely store and move fluids from A to B.

These sterile and durable bioprocess containers house and protect the single-use bags from becoming contaminated, reducing the likelihood of tears and leakages during transportation and storage.
