When working with fragile cell types—like stem cells, regulatory T cells, or other rare populations—every extra handling step can make the difference between a healthy, functional sample and one that fails downstream. Processes such as repeated centrifugation, pipetting, or exposure to harsh conditions often introduce unnecessary stress and risk. This article takes a closer look at why minimizing manipulation is so important, the challenges posed by traditional methods, and how …

The rapid rise of cell therapies is transforming how we treat disease. However, every step from discovery to clinical application must meet rigorous quality and regulatory standards to deliver safe and effective treatments. One critical piece of the workflow is cell separation: isolating or depleting specific immune cell types with precision, speed, and reliability. But as companies advance toward clinical trials and commercialization, not just any kit will do. So …

Cells are isolated in-bag then transferred from the bag to any Wilson Wolf G-Rex® bioreactor. Cells are then electroporated using the MaxCyte ExPERT GTx® Instrument. Electroporation can be done at both small and large scale, with the capability of sterile tube welding to facilitate larger scale workflows. Combining technologies, the result is highly viable cells with greater killing potential.

Imagine unlocking greater flexibility in your cell therapy workflow while preserving cell health, improving yield, and reducing complexity without overhauling your existing equipment. That’s precisely what Akadeum Life Sciences’ microbubble technology makes possible. In a recent case study with the Lonza Cocoon® Platform, Akadeum’s GMP microbubbles enabled fully automated T cell enrichment from cryopreserved leukopaks—no magnets, beads, or compromise. Microbubble-based separation can modernize cell manufacturing while maintaining compatibility with closed-system, …
