With the Q3 2019 release, INFORS HT is changing the licenses for eve®, the platform software for bioprocesses. Instead of the Core, Plan & Control as well as User Management & Reporting packages, there are three licenses which can now be selected: Basic: Essential monitoring and reporting features for shaker and bioreactor experiments, perfect for smaller budgets. Standard: Workflow-oriented planning tools including comprehensive features for bioprocess automation, control, monitoring and reporting. Premium: Full version to meet the technical requirements of FDA 21 CFR Part 11 and EudraLex Annex 11. For customers, the new license structure offers an easier selection of the appropriate configuration and a simpler overview of the features. A new driver structure simplifies the connection of various third-party devices. Via a clearly arranged user interface, the user can define parameters which are monitored and controlled via eve®. The new drivers are available for OPC, Modbus and all Applikon bioreactors. Learn more about eve® and its features.

INFORS HT launches new version of the Techfors pilot bioreactor

With the Techfors, INFORS HT is offering a bespoke solution for production-scale bioprocesses. The new pilot bioreactor differs from its predecessors not only in terms of looks. The user interface is consistently workflow-oriented and therefore makes operating the Techfors absolute child's play. With the aid of the eve® bioprocess software, complex bioprocesses can not only be controlled, monitored and analyzed in a GMP-regulated environment, but also documented. As in the previous models, INFORS HT has implemented a modern design with clear lines. However, the new version of the pilot bioreactor has far much more to offer: "Besides the modern look with ergonomically arranged pumps and a tilting touch screen, we particularly focused on a consistently workflow-oriented user interface," explains Dr. Dirk Hebel, Lead Product Manager Bioreactors, INFORS HT. The result is a real eye-catcher. Controlling the new Techfors pilot bioreactor using the touch screen user interface is child's play. The software is the same as that used in the smaller bioreactors. The advantage of this is that the user can get started right away – without the need for any familiarization. The interface and procedures are already familiar from the smaller bench-top and parallel bioreactors. The eve® bioprocess software is used not only to control, monitor, and analyze complex bioprocesses but also to document them in conformity with GMP. The proven advantages of the Techfors are also offered by the new version: each pilot bioreactor is produced precisely according to the customer's requirements. Thanks to the modular design, sensors or analysis devices can be retrofitted at any time later on. The INFORS HT team is available as required to provide support during qualification and validation.
