Eppendorf BioBLU Bioreactor 10c Macro Single Use 13.3 L Sterile

Eppendorf BioBLU 10c Single-Use Bioreactor Vessel (1386141000)

The Eppendorf BioBLU 10c is a premium, single-use bioreactor vessel engineered for high-performance cell culture applications. Designed to provide a seamless transition from research-scale to pilot-production, the 10c offers a working volume range of 3.5 to 10.0 liters. This vessel is constructed from high-purity, multi-layer polymer film (low-extractable) and features a rigid, overhead-driven pitched-blade impeller optimized for gentle yet efficient mixing of sensitive mammalian, insect, and human cell lines. Delivered pre-sterilized and fully assembled with integrated sensors, spargers, and filtration, the BioBLU 10c eliminates the time-consuming tasks of cleaning, assembly, and sterilization validation, significantly increasing laboratory throughput and reducing the risk of cross-contamination.

Technical Performance and Design

• Cell Culture Optimized Impeller: Features a high-efficiency pitched-blade impeller designed to maximize mass transfer while minimizing shear stress, ensuring the health and viability of fragile suspension cultures.

• Fully Integrated Sterile Design: Comes equipped with a comprehensive set of pre-installed ports for pH and DO sensors, addition lines, harvest tubes, and a high-performance sparger system for precise aeration control.

• Advanced Material Science: The vessel body is manufactured from a biocompatible, USP Class VI polymer film that offers excellent clarity for visual inspection and an exceptionally low leachables/extractables profile.

• Scalability & Compatibility: Specifically designed for use with Eppendorf BioProcess controllers (such as the BioFlo series), ensuring standardized performance across different scales of production.
