Bioreactors
The manufacturing process begins with cell culture, or cells grown in the laboratory that are scaled-up to Bioreactors. At DYPIU, we have two bioreactors to maintain the specific environment that cells need in order to thrive. In Bioreactors all variables as temperature, pH, nutrient concentration, and oxygen levels are strictly maintained.
A rotary evaporator
A rotary evaporator, is used to efficiently and gently evaporate solvents from samples. A rotavap instrument is essential to isolate and concentrate the solute by evaporating the solvent, resulting in the purification of the desired molecule.
Kjehldahl Apparatus
Kjehldahl Apparatus is an analytical instrument for determining nitrogen content in organic and inorganic substances. The Kjeldahl method determines nitrogen content by converting it into ammonium sulfate through digestion, followed by distillation and titration.
Lyophilizer
Lyophilizer is a specialized piece of equipment used in the Biology/ biotechnology, pharmaceutical, and food industries for drying sensitive materials, particularly those that are heat-sensitive. Freeze drying process involves freezing the material and then removing the ice by sublimation, a process where ice transitions directly into vapor without passing through the liquid phase.
