                                            System overview


                                            The full line of XDR bioreactor systems are designed and
                                            characterized to deliver scalable process equivalence from 4.5 L to
                                            2000 L working volume, in both GMP and non GMP environments.
                                            The system design is based on the same foundational principles as
                                            conventional stainless steel bioreactors. Consistent vessel
                                            geometries, tight relationship between consumables and
                                            equipment features, and a host of accessories combine for an
                                            easily scalable, single use product line. Traditional scaling method-
                                            ology, based on measures such as shear, tip speed, power per unit
                                            volume, kL a, and specific process sensitivities, can be used during
                                            scale up.
