When AST came to the table on the design for our new fill-finish isolator, one of the first areas AST engineers wanted to address was the usability and accessibility of the isolator and corresponding operations. With our customers’ point of view in mind, we wanted to address specific points of friction routinely encountered by operators and closely examine whether those friction points were necessary.
Does an isolator need to be ergonomically unfriendly to clean?
Should simple mechanisms like isolator doors be challenging to engage? (As much as one can appreciate exercise, no one wants to do “arm day” in cleanroom coveralls).
Does routine maintenance have to be time-consuming and laborious?
Many of these factors are accepted as par for the course in aseptic fill-finish manufacturing. Our question was, why?

Medical tubing serves as the circulatory system for many devices, facilitating fluid transfer, drainage, and even electrical signal routing, but not all tubing is created equal. The materials, dimensions, tolerances, and chemical resistance must be meticulously designed to ensure patient safety and device performance.

This easy-to-use process analytical technology device offers in-line bioprocess analysis and control with no complex modeling. Measure multiple critical parameters across media, across processes, across mammalian cell lines, across scales.
All In-line Gain, No Modeling Pain
MAVERICK is powered by Raman spectroscopy and a purpose-built de novo model. The de novo model is explicitly built on media chemistries and device physics, not on empirical data. It automatically interprets the spectra and quantifies process parameters enabling simultaneous measurements of glucose, lactate, and total biomass. This is achieved without the costs, complexities, and risks associated with conventional Process Analytical Technology (PAT) methods. There is no need to grapple with complex empirical models, reagents, or unreliable auto-sampling systems to implement in-line bioprocess analysis.
