Abstract: Systems and devices for producing biological products and methods of using the same are provided. An example universal skid includes a rigid support and a plurality of flow-channel hardware sets. Each flow-channel hardware set couples with a respective flow channel of a plurality of flow channels for unit operations. The flow-channel hardware sets allow the flow channels to operate in parallel or in series for continuous processing over the unit operations. An example modular assembly includes one or more single-use kits for one or more unit operations and a universal skid coupled with the one or more single-use kits. An example manufacturing system includes multiple modular assemblies coupled with each other allowing continuous processing within each modular assembly, in between the modular assemblies, fully continuous processing across multiple unit operations.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and systems for the continuous production of recombinant proteins. In particular embodiments, the disclosure relates to methods and systems using capture chromatography, post-capture chromatography, virus filtration, and ultrafiltration/diafiltration for the continuous production of recombinant proteins.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods of reducing bioburden of a chromatography resin that include exposing a container including a composition including (i) a chromatography resin and (ii) a liquid including at least on alcohol to a dose of gamma-irradiation sufficient to reduce the bioburden of the container and the chromatography resin, where the at least one alcohol are present in an amount sufficient to ameliorate the loss of binding capacity of the chromatography resin after/upon exposure to the dose of gamma-irradiation. Also provided are reduced bioburden chromatography columns including the reduced bioburden chromatography resin, compositions including a chromatography resin and a liquid including at least one alcohol, methods of performing reduced bioburden column chromatography using one of these reduced bioburden chromatography columns, and integrated, closed, and continuous processes for reduced bioburden manufacturing of a purified recombinant protein.
