Why This Service

Extend Your Team with Vertical-Wheel Expertise

Whether you need a focused feasibility study, process optimization, or a complete development program, our scientists work as an extension of your team to meet your goals. Processes are developed and characterized in PBS Biotech laboratories, generating process data, operating strategies, and documentation that support technology transfer and manufacturing readiness.

De-risk Development

Assess process feasibility and scalability before committing significant resources.

Optimize Performance

Apply structured, data-driven studies to identify conditions that support your process goals.

Ready for Transfer

Build the process understanding and documentation needed for effective technology transfer.

Feasibility & proof-of-concept: establish growth, viability, phenotype, and other process-relevant quality attributes on the Vertical-Wheel.

Multiplexed DoE studies: Conduct complex, multiplexed studies for media, feed, and other process-variable screening.

Process characterization: Define operating ranges, process viability, and robustness to strengthen process understanding.

2D-to-3D: Evaluate the transition from static or adherent workflows to scalable 3D suspension processes.

Scale-up characterization: Develop CFD-informed operating parameters and scale-up strategies across Vertical-Wheel bioreactors.

Technology-transfer package: Receive process reports, supporting data, and operating guidance for internal or external transfer and manufacturing readiness.

How It Works

From Kickoff to Transferable Process

01Scope

We align on your cell type, targets, and timeline in a technical kickoff.

02Run

Our scientists execute the study in our internal development lab.

03Analyze

Data is reviewed together, with clear go/no-go recommendations.

04Transfer

You receive a documented, transferable process and set points.
