Bio-Techne displayed some of its analytical tools at last week’s Cell & Gene Therapy Manufacturing & Commercialization Europe event in Dublin, Ireland.
“Over the past few years, the main bottleneck in cell therapy manufacturing was on the manufacturing side itself,” Lauren Styles, commercial growth specialist for cell and gene therapy at Bio-Techne, told BioProcess Insider.
However, there have been a lot of advancements in that space “and that’s no longer where the biggest hurdles are,” she explained. “What we feel is the biggest hurdle right now is the analytical side and finding those gold standard methods for advanced therapy analytics.”
Harnessing its background in R&D systems within the proteins space, Bio-Techne has developed a range of instruments focused on the CGT space.
Specifically, the firm was showcasing its Ella, Jess, and Maurice tools, which Styles said are next generation analytical instruments positioned perfectly for the solid CGT workflows.
“What we are here to do is speed up, improve sensitivity, [and produce] more reliable results. To accelerate that time from product development to the clinic, time is so crucial,” she said. “Any step of the way that we can improve that and make it more efficient, is what we’re here to do, and this is what our instruments can bring to the fields.”
