A Collaboration With Zurich University Of Applied Sciences

ZHAW (Zurich University of Applied Sciences) has emerged as a leader in the field of cell cultivation and bioprocessing, building on more than two decades of dedicated research and innovation. Leveraging this extensive experience, ZHAW has made significant strides in scaling bioprocesses from milliliter volumes to pilot-scale operations. A key factor in this success has been its strategic collaboration with Thermo Fisher Scientific, a partnership that has enabled the development of robust, scalable solutions to some of the most pressing challenges in biomanufacturing. These include optimizing oxygen supply, managing carbon dioxide levels, and mitigating shear forces—critical factors that can impact cell viability and productivity during scale-up. By combining ZHAW’s academic expertise with Thermo Fisher’s technological capabilities, the collaboration offers the scientific and industrial communities practical, scalable, and easy-to-implement solutions. Central to these advancements are cutting-edge media solutions such as Gibco™ Efficient-Pro Medium and Feed, along with the High-Intensity Perfusion (HIP) CHO Medium.

Explore how these innovations not only streamline the path from research to production but also empower biomanufacturers to achieve greater efficiency and success in their workflows.
