2D Labtainer BioProcess Container
(BPC) systems
Small-volume liquid handling systems for
cell culture and bioprocessing
Thermo Scientific™ Labtainer™ BioProcess Containers
(BPCs) effectively address small-volume liquid handling
needs. They range in size from 50 mL to 50 L, with a
variety of standard configurations to meet most application
needs. These Labtainer BPCs are space saving,
ergonomic, and constructed of Thermo Scientific™
Aegis™ 5-14 and CX5-14 films. Product configurations cover
a range of industry-standard connection systems; handling
systems are available for transport and storage.
Standard products
Standard Labtainer BPCs are stocked for immediate
delivery and are fully supported by our process and
product validation program. For more information on
our validation program, please refer to our validation
guides on Aegis5-14 and CX5-14 films. Additionally,
standard Labtainer BPCs have validated liquid
shipping configurations.
Standard configurations can be customized for optimal
fit, form, and function to address process-specific
applications, using one of the industry’s largest libraries of
qualified components.
Whether in standard or customized configurations,
Labtainer BPCs are ideal for:
• Dispensing, packaging, and storing cell culture media,
buffers, and process liquids
• Delivery of cell culture media or process liquids to
small-scale bioprocess systems
• Bioreactor and fermentation feed, sampling, and harvest
• Chromatography feed and fraction collection
• Storage and transport of bulk intermediate products,
process intermediates, vaccine conjugates, and other
biological products
