Buy Applikon BioPilot in Nigeria
The Applikon BioPilot is Getinge's stainless steel, sterilize-in-place bioreactor for small-scale production. This guide covers what Getinge documents and what to confirm before requesting a quotation. It is a buying aid, not a validation document.
What is the BioPilot designed for?
Getinge lists scale-up studies, medium and process optimisation, small-scale production and seed trains, for microbial and cell culture in batch, fed-batch, perfusion and continuous cultivation. It sits in the bioreactors and fermenters category within the Getinge range.
Which configurations does Getinge publish?
| Model | Total / working volume | | --- | --- | | Pilot Cell 30 L, 60 L, 130 L | 30 / 20 L; 60 / 40 L; 130 / 100 L | | Pilot Microbial 40 L, 70 L, 140 L, 270 L | 40 / 34 L; 70 / 50 L; 140 / 100 L; 270 / 200 L |
Cell models have an aspect ratio of 1.5 total and 1.0 working. Microbial models are 3.0 total and 2.2–2.4 working. Minimum working volumes range from 7 L to 40 L depending on model.
What construction features are documented?
The vessel is 316L stainless steel with a surface finish of Ra below 0.4 micron. The agitator is magnetically coupled, so no shaft seal penetrates the vessel. Maximum tip speed is 3 m/s for microbial and 1 m/s for cell cultures. Getinge also lists a modular design, open frame construction, a compact footprint, and a cGMP and GAMP design with documentation to support validation. Sparger options are porous, L-type or ring-type, with a water-cooled exhaust condenser.
What should a Nigerian buyer confirm before ordering?
- Whether you need a cell or microbial model, and the exact volume. - Impeller, sparger, level measurement (conductivity or load cells) and sampling options. - Controller, software and utilities, which the page does not settle. - Regulatory status, warranty, delivery, installation and training.
Nigerian stock, price and service capability are not established by this guide or by Getinge's page.
