Maintaining a sterile environment is essential in bioprocess laboratories, particularly when working with sensitive cell cultures or microbial samples. Contamination not only jeopardizes experimental results, but it can also lead to costly downtime and wasted resources. In this first installment of our Back to Basics blog series, we focus on the role of UV decontamination in incubator shakers and how it serves as an effective risk mitigation strategy.

Stefan Sperling is an industrial designer at the Meyer-Hayoz Design Engineering Group in Switzerland. He is part of the specialist team who was responsible for designing the award-winning INFORS HT Minifors 2 as well as the Multitron and Minitron. In this interview, Mr. Sperling shares his view on what constitutes good product design.
In the fast-paced world of bioprocessing, having reliable lab equipment is critical for research and process development success. The Multitron incubator shaker has been designed with these demands in mind, offering precision and efficiency that directly address the challenges scientists face in their labs. Whether you are optimizing culture conditions or scaling up processes, the Multitron shaker provides the tools you need to advance your research with confidence.
Gene therapy is a promising approach for treating various genetic disorders and diseases. A critical component of gene therapy is the production of viral vectors, which serve as delivery vehicles for therapeutic genes. Human Embryonic Kidney 293 (HEK293) cells have become a widely used platform for viral vector production due to their efficiency in transfection and ability to support viral replication. However, optimizing HEK293 cell cultures for large-scale production of viral vectors remains a challenge in making gene therapies more accessible and cost-effective.
Simple actions can make a lot of difference to the outcome of your shake flasks cultures. Some beneficial ones have been covered in previous articles, however, common practices can also be a barrier to effective optimization. This article will explain why these common practices count as sins against your shake flask culture and what you can do to overcome them.
As demand for sustainable food sources surges, Daisy Lab is revolutionizing dairy production with precision fermentation technology. By using INFORS HT bioreactors, this New Zealand-based startup is producing animal-free milk proteins like whey and casein. Discover how the innovative process at Daisy Labs, now set to scale with EPA approval, is paving the way for a more sustainable future in dairy.
Cleaning an incubator shaker sounds trivial, but it is critical for cultivation success. The good news is that doing the right thing is simple, effective, and can easily be integrated into the routine management of a laboratory.
Discover how INFORS HT bioreactors and services have supported bioprocess education and research at Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM). Joo Shun TAN (陈裕声), Associate Professor, shares insights on leveraging Minifors, Multifors, and Techfors bioreactors to enhance teaching, research, and scale-up processes.
Discover how INFORS HT’s bioreactor systems enhance bioprocess R&D for the Agro-Biotechnology Institute. Explore their streamlined operations and optimized yields. An interview-style article with Dr. Siti Rokhiyah PhD., Head of Bioreactor Unit at the Agro-Biotechnology Institute (ABI), National Institutes of Biotechnology Malaysia (NIBM) in Malaysia.
Zara Summers, Chief Science Officer at LanzaTech, a Biotech Company, vividly articulates the company goal to reduce fossil fuel consumption and instead, recycle carbon, that is already above ground to create necessities: "We want it so every child in the world can pick up a crayon and color the sky and have that crayon that they pick be blue. Right? And today that is not the reality for every kid around the world."
