The Benchtop Freeze Dryer for Collagen Scaffolds

Feedback from TERMIS Galway confirmed that the VirTis ‘AdVantage Plus’ is our most popular freeze dryer for collagen scaffolds.

 



Freeze drying offers a number of benefits for the preservation of high value biotech products. The precise control of process conditions offered by more sophisticated systems enables all the processing conditions to be regulated. Avoidance of high temperatures is particularly important when dealing with sensitive biological products such as tissues and proteins, while manipulation of the freezing stage allows the pore size of the dried material to be tightly controlled.

The VirTis AdVantage Plus system offers advanced freeze drying performance in a convenient benchtop footprint. This powerful unit provides up to three fluid-cooled shelves for accurate temperature control as low as -70°C. The intuitive control system allows on-board storage of up to 16 multi-step freeze drying programs and is also featured on larger models, allowing for quick and easy scale-up. PC software is also available which provides historical trending and system synoptic. The software allows data storage and manipulation to assist with batch recording and report writing.
