WAVE Bioreactor Systems
WAVE single use bioreactors were developed by WAVE Biotech in 1996 and led the revolution in single use technologies that is redefining upstream and downstream processing of biopharmaceuticals today. The bioreactor requires no cleaning or sterilization, providing the ultimate ease of operation and protections against cross contamination.
In the WAVE Bioreactor system cell culture medium and cells contact only a presterile, disposable chamber, the Cellbag, that is placed on a special rocking platform. The rocking motion of this platform induces waves in the cell culture fluid. These waves provide mixing and oxygen transfer, resulting in a perfect environment for cell growth that can easily support over 10 x 106 cells/ml.
WAVE Bioreactor systems support the ReadyToProcess platform of ready for use products used in the upstream and downstream processing of biopharmaceuticals. WAVE Bioreactors are also used for cell expansion in applications within gene and cell therapy, and regenerative medicine.
Cell Culture Products |
|
WAVE Bioreactor™ is a cell culture device suitable for applications in animal, virus, insect, and plant cell culture in suspension, or on microcarriers, as well as cellular therapeutics.
 | Disposable cell culture systems for 0.1 to 500 liters. |
 | Thousands of units in use worldwide. |
 | Culture medium and cells only contact a presterile, disposable chamber called a Cellbag. |
 | Cellbag rests on a specifically designed rocking platform that induces waves in the culture fluid. |
 | These waves provide mixing and oxygen transfer, resulting in a perfect environment for cell growth. |
 | No cleaning or sterilization needed. |

Mixing Products |
WAVE Mixer™ provides efficient mixing in a sealed bag by using the wave induction approach.
 | No pump or impeller to induce circulation flow, uses waves generated by rocking motion. |
 | Wave motion moves large volumes of fluid and disperses solids. |
 | Very efficient at generating waves because it essentially uses gravity to accelerate the wave. |
