Scalable solutions for optimizing lentiviral vector production

Lentiviral vectors (LVs) are essential tools in cell and gene therapy, known for their ability to integrate therapeutic genes stably into the genome of target cells. This ensures long-term expression and effectiveness in treating genetic disorders. As the demand for LVs continues to grow, developing efficient production processes is critical for achieving high yields and increased quality.

In this webinar, we will showcase the optimization of a scalable LV production process using a high-throughput, automated microbioreactor system. The speakers will provide insights to aid in the optimization and scale up of LV production processes, ensuring a consistent supply of high-quality LVs for clinical applications. They will further highlight the impact of key parameters on LV production, including DNA, pH, dissolved oxygen, and stirring speed.

Attend this webinar to:

  • Learn how to optimize LV production using DoE in an automated small-scale bioreactor
  • Discover the benefits of switching to a next-generation LV transfection reagent
  • Explore the effects of key parameters on LV production
