Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to bioreactor consoles that provide a stable structure with built-in bioreactor component management. The bioreactor consoles disclosed herein can include one or more vertical platforms with notches and/or a recessed platform that can provide the desirable flexibility to easily connect and disconnect various tubes, cables, and components of the bioreactor system as well as organize which tubes and cables connect to which component of a bioreactor on the vertical platforms.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to bioreactor bag assemblies that can minimize the amount of additional connections/adaptations made to the bioreactor bag before the bioreactor bag can be used for cell cultivation, thereby reducing the risk of contamination. The bioreactor bag assemblies disclosed herein can include a pre-assembled waste bag connection and pre-assembled tubing arrangements so that the cell media and/or the cell source can be immediately welded to the pre-assembled tubing arrangements.

Abstract: The present invention relates to crystalline 1-adamantanamine salts, and polymorphic forms thereof, of prostaglandin analog intermediates of formula 3a, 4a and 6a, useful in the preparation of Tafluprost and Lubiprostone and processes for their preparation. The process includes combining 1-adamantanamine, water, an organic solvent, and a compound of Formula 3 or 6, thereby obtaining a suspension. The process also includes isolating the solid salt of Formula 3a or 6a from the suspension.

Abstract: Solid forms of Mirabegron, including forms APO-I, APO-II, and various salt forms, and processes for the preparation thereof, are provided.

Abstract: This invention provides processes for preparation of 3-alkyl indoles of Formula 1: wherein A1, A2 and A3 are independently selected from the group consisting of: H, X, OR1, CN, CONR22 and C02R3; R1 is C1-C6 alkyl; R2 is H or C1-C6 alkyl; R3 is C1-C6 alkyl; LG is a leaving group; X is a halogen; and n is 1, 2 or 3.

Abstract: There is provided processes for preparing Lubiprostone and intermediates thereof. Also provided are compounds, including intermediates for preparing Lubiprostone as well compositions comprising Lubiprostone and other compounds, including intermediates for preparing Lubiprostone and other compounds.

Abstract: Provided for in the instant application are two additional forms of rifaximin, namely rifaximin polymorphic forms APO-III and APO-IV. Also provided are allegedly novel processes for preparing the previously disclosed rifaximin polymorphic forms APO-I and APO-II. Rifaximin is a non-aminoglycoside antibiotic that has previously been found to be useful for the treatment of traveller's diarrhea caused by Escherichia coli bacteria, as well as in the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome, diverticular disease, hepatic encephalopathy, pyogenic skin infections and as an antibacterial prophylactic prior to colon surgery.

Abstract: The present invention contemplates a method and system for automatically entering a data series into an electronic spreadsheet program or the like. After the user has selected source cells containing the start of the data series, the manipulation may be carried out with little effort on the part of the user. In a preferred embodiment, to enter a data series, the user merely positions the cursor over a predetermined location on the outside border of the source cells, depresses and holds down a predefined mouse button, drags the border to a new location, and then releases the mouse button. The data series is automatically created based on the contents of the source cells and predetermined criteria.
