Lonza announces capacity expansion at Slough UK facility
The investment will allow the installation of a 500L stirred tank bioreactor system with associated inoculum expansion area, media preparation and primary recovery capabilities. In addition, two new purification suites will be created. These will be used to meet the increased downstream requirements resulting from the new bioreactor and from the increasing product titers being realized with Lonza's GS expression technology. This additional fermentation capacity is scheduled to be on line in Q4 2006.
