Seamlessly transition from formulation condition screening to scale-up and GMP manufacturing. Accelerate LNP product development.

The development of lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) faces many challenges. The formulation, optimization, and scale-up for clinical trials are complex, costly, and a race against time. Our LNP solutions are designed to accelerate all steps of LNP synthesis and characterization. Sunscreen accelerates LNP formulation screening by reducing costs and time, generating up to 96 unique LNP formulations within 6 hours. Next, using Sunshine, you can develop, optimize, and scale up protocols with the appropriate formulations obtained from Sunscreen. When it comes to the clinical trial phase, Sunbather can accommodate LNP production in a GMP environment using the same processes and microfluidic chips (Sunny) utilized by Sunscreen and Sunshine. In this way, the Sun series allows for a seamless transition from screening formulation conditions to scale-up and GMP manufacturing, as they all use the same pumps and microchannel chips. *For product details, please download various materials.

Accelerating formulation optimization for vaccine and pharmaceutical development.

To create the optimal LNP, it takes a tremendous amount of time and effort to examine and pursue formulation conditions. LNPs are nanoparticles composed of multiple lipids. Therefore, it is necessary to find the optimal conditions such as the mixing ratios, the ratio of lipids to payload, and the flow rates during mixing. Furthermore, we must also consider throughput issues. Sunscreen can produce up to 96 types of small LNPs within six hours, thus solving the previous throughput problems. This means that it is possible to explore a greater number of formulation condition investigations in a single day. • Fully automated execution of up to 96 types of condition investigations within six hours • 200 μL to 2 mL per experiment • Flow rate of 0.1 to 30 mL/min • Reusable microfluidic chips • Seamless scale-up through process and protocol optimization

• Other Physics and Chemistry Equipment

Efficient mass production of LNPs - Supporting everything from small-scale condition testing to scale-up.

Once we succeed in finding the optimal formulation conditions for sunscreen, let's use Sunshine to adjust the size of the LNP. Furthermore, we will optimize the protocols and processes for scaling up. We will find the ideal flow rate and explore different mixing options. Next, we will adjust these to the appropriate dilution factor that can keep them stable. Once everything is in place, Sunshine will transition to continuous mode, allowing us to produce several dozen liters in a day. In other words, we will achieve process development and scaling up on a single platform. Many researchers have likely been looking forward to the birth of such a groundbreaking system. • 10 experiments in 15 minutes • Fraction & total flow • From 1 mL to continuous flow • Flow rate 0.1 to 30 mL/min • Reusable microfluidic chips • Possible transition of protocols from sunscreen

Accelerating formulation optimization for vaccine and pharmaceutical development.

The transition from LNP to GMP is a costly and complicated process. Typically, this requires switching equipment, using different flow paths and mixing devices, and essentially re-developing and re-validating everything that has been painstakingly done so far. With Sunbather, the transition to GMP can be done easily thanks to its recording features, interchangeable flow paths, and easily transferable design. Sunbather uses the same mixing process and protocols as the Sunscreen and Sunshine from the same Sun series, allowing for easy transition of adjusted formulation conditions to GMP. - Up to 1.8 L/h - Integrated inline dilution - Fully interchangeable flow paths - A wide variety of mixing devices - Software compliant with 21 CFR Part 11 - Process transferable from Sunshine

In recent years, the implementation of maintenance DX to achieve "non-stop factories" has become an urgent necessity in manufacturing sites. Amid the trend of factory IoT and data utilization, the use of remote I/O, which can remotely aggregate and collect sensor information and control signals from equipment and sensors dispersed inside and outside the factory, is gaining importance as a foundation for predictive maintenance and condition monitoring. On the other hand, the installation environment for remote I/O is not necessarily limited to control panels or well-conditioned factory interiors. There is an increasing need to collect data in harsh environments, such as outdoor equipment and conditions involving high temperatures, low temperatures, vibrations, and strong electrical noise. Conventional remote I/O systems have struggled to operate stably under such conditions, requiring measures like installation location constraints and additional protective enclosures. Environmentally robust remote I/O with wide temperature support and noise resistance can address these challenges, enabling the expansion of the scope of factory IoT and predictive maintenance to outdoor and remote equipment. In this seminar, we will introduce the lineup of Contec's environmentally robust remote I/O, the "CONPROSYS(R) Robust I/O Series," which includes a total of 23 products.
