- Day 3: We will make it happen!They call Wednesday a hump day for a reason. After day one and day two pushing the teams to their limits, the learning curve was certainly step. But at the Testa Center we keep on pushing, and things started to look more downhill. Due to the unforeseen circumstances from day two, day three was committed …
- Day 2: Lights, Camera and Action – Upstream in a bioreactor with cameras, sample analytics, in-bag sensors, parallel shake flask reactors and in-line mass spectrometryDay two was when many of the participant’s experiments were going live; Video analysis detection, live process-data streaming from Sweden to the US, in-bag sensors to retrieve data from the bioreactor and in-parallel flask ShakeReactors replicating the bioprocess in small-scale. Everything went according to plan, until we had to reset and start it all over …
- Day 1: Don’t try this at home, or in GMP (try it at the Testa Challenge!)Like most systematic approaches, a failing cog, loose wiring or a single broken piece can cause the whole process to come to a halt.
