  • Patent number: 11795429
    Abstract: Described herein are isolated cell culture components such as, e.g., biologics and/or lipids, and methods for isolating cell culture components from a liquid cell culture medium. Methods of the present invention may include contacting a dehydration composition and a liquid cell culture medium comprising a target component to form a mixture; forming an at least partially dehydrated component in the mixture; and separating the at least partially dehydrated component from the mixture, thereby providing an isolated component. In some embodiments, the isolated component comprises the at least partially dehydrated component. In some embodiments, the isolated component is present in a composition (e.g., liquid phase) separated from the at least partially dehydrated component.

  • Patent number: 11560829
    Abstract: A recirculation system for a power system is disclosed. The recirculation system may determine, according to a sequence for individually activating a plurality of turbochargers of an engine, that a designated turbocharger of the plurality of turbochargers is to be activated. The recirculation system may cause a recirculation valve of a recirculation line to open to increase an airflow between an intake manifold and a compressor of the designated turbocharger.
