Providing process solutions to decarbonize and reduce the environmental impact of water and energy resources

Contributing to more efficient cultivation processes through fluid control, thermal control and engineering technologies

Cultivation technologies are attracting attention as a means of addressing a wide range of social challenges. Regenerative medicine offers new treatment options for diseases and injuries that have previously been difficult to treat. Cell-based food is expected to help address the global food crisis driven by population growth, while structural proteins are attracting attention as innovative materials that can reduce dependence on conventional petroleum-based products. Drawing on the fluid control, temperature control and engineering technologies that EBARA CORPORATION has cultivated since its foundation, we contribute to the realization of highly efficient and high-quality cell cultivation processes.

Social issues and EBARA’s solutions


Development of cell culture processes backed by EBARA's technology and knowledge

We promote culture process solutions using EBARA's expertise in heat and fluid technologies to develop new equipment and expand into the bio industry.

In order to realize a culture environment, we design the equipment to precisely control the concentration, temperature, pH, etc. of each component in the fluid.

We are developing equipment and processes by integrating the biotechnologies of culture and biomaterials based on the technologies with EBARA's engineering technologies related to equipment design and manufacturing.


Innovating manufacturing processes through the integration of biotechnology and mechanical engineering

EBARA supports process development for the scale-up of culture supernatant production promoted by IntegriCulture Inc.

When scaling up production from the laboratory to commercial manufacturing, maintaining a stable cultivation environment while achieving both high productivity and consistent quality is essential. By leveraging our expertise in fluid and temperature control, automation, and engineering technologies, we contribute to improving the efficiency and sophistication of manufacturing processes.

By integrating biotechnology with mechanical and engineering technologies, we aim to drive innovation in manufacturing processes and provide optimal solutions tailored to our customers' needs.

Products Under Development

Circulating cell culture system

We have developed a compact cell culture system that enables high-density, large-scale cell cultivation in a small footprint. By eliminating the need for passaging and medium exchange, while making highly efficient use of culture medium, the system helps reduce the cost and labor and improve process consistency. It also enables scale-up from laboratory to commercial production without changing the cultivation method.

Features

  • Large-scale cell cultivation without passaging or medium exchange
  • Small footprint
  • Easy cell harvesting with a single column
  • Reduced cultivation costs through efficient use of culture medium
