Proliant Health & Biologicals forms a strategic partnership with Lampire Biological Laboratories for custom and small package size customers.

Lampire Biological Laboratories has established a strategic partnership to do contract filling for Proliant Health and Biologicals, manufacturers of the world’s most trusted, high quality Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA). Lampire will be packaging and distributing Proliant’s high quality Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) for those customers requiring packaging less than Proliant’s standard 10kg containers. In addition to the lyophilized product that is used throughout the world, Lampire will also offer made-to-order aqueous blends in a buffer and package size of your choice. These formulations will be prepared in time to meet your demanding schedule and at a price that won’t break your budget.

Proliant has become the world’s pre-eminent bulk manufacturer of BSA, while Lampire maintains a worldwide market in biopharmaceutical and diagnostic testing products.

Several BSA preparations are available, including Standard Grade and Reagent Grade, and each is, at a minimum, protease-free, IgG-free, low endotoxin and low bioburden. In addition, all grades are prepared via a “closed loop” system, with every process tightly controlled: from raw material collection to fractionation, lyophilization, and packaging. Material is provided in liquid or powder form, and custom packaging is available.

LAMPIRE is proud to enter this collaboration with Proliant and is looking forward to continuing to supply the world with the highest quality products and services. For more information, please contact your local LAMPIRE representative.

LAMPIRE Biological Laboratories has added ZEC – Zebrafish Embryo Culture Teratogenicity Screen and rWEC – Rat Whole Embryo Teratogenicity Screen to our products & services offering. These screenings are two more ways LAMPIRE is meeting the industry’s initiative to REDUCE, REFINE & REPLACE.

These services are available now and custom quotes are generated after free consultation. For more information contact your Lampire representative, call us at 215.795.2838, follow the links above, or email us at info@lampire.com.

This year, rather than print and mail conventional holiday cards, LAMPIRE made donations to The Lord’s pantry and The Everett UMC food banks. Donations were made in the amount we would have spent on cards in an effort to provide food and essentials for local families in need during the Holiday Season. We hope you join us in our efforts to help brighten everyone’s spirits during this holiday season.

We hope you take a quick moment and follow our friends below to a very special holiday wish… and feel free to sing along!

All of us at Lampire Biological Laboratories would like to wish you Happy Holidays and a Healthy, happy and Prosperous New Year!

Sincerely,
Gregory F. Krug, President

Pipersville, PA. September 1, 2008—

LAMPIRE’s newest product, the Next Generation LAMPIRE Cell Culture Bag, is a cost effective, easy-to-use cell culture device for growing hybridomas for antibody production, mammalian cells, epithelial cells, stem cells, tumor cells, fibroblasts, plant cells, as well as recombinant protein production, DNA/RNA extraction and more. Developed initially for internal Monoclonal research, our scientists further refined the bags for utilization by researchers worldwide. Current bag sizes range from 50ml up to 2 liter.

“Customer’s in pharmaceutical, biotechnology and academia use our Cell Culture Bags for many different applications and protocols in laboratory research through production scale up”, says Barbara Quinter, Specialty Products Manager. “Historically, cell growth has been conducted in T-flasks and roller bottles which typically require additional equipment such as rolling mechanisms, tubing, and additional protocol steps to ensure exchange of nutrients and waste. Our customers appreciate the unique bag construction which provides for simplified protocols and ease of use.” With the Next Generation LAMPIRE Cell Culture Bag, cell cultures may be grown effortlessly in a CO2 incubator just utilizing desired cells and the appropriate media formulation.



“The Next Generation LAMPIRE Cell Culture Bag is efficient, economical and environmentally responsible”, notes Gregory F. Krug, President of LAMPIRE. “The more compact culture vessel enhances cell culture productivity per incubator space. Cell growth volumes within incubator space, such as in the Caron Products 6024 Reach-In CO2 Incubator with high wire rack capacity, provides for 96 one liter cell culture bags. This is 3 times as much media volume compared to flasks and roller bottles. And due to the higher media capacity, we’ve experienced 3-4 times the cell growth as well as higher protein and antibody yields. And with fewer bags used, combined with their collapsible size, disposal space is drastically reduced.” Just open the presterilized individually wrapped bags, add media and cells to the full bag size (one liter of media in a 1 Liter bag), and incubate. Easy and productive from start to finish, easy to fill, easy to observe cell growth, easy to maintain, and easy to dispose. We invite you to evaluate The Next Generation LAMPIRE Cell Culture Bag in your lab with your cell lines and materials. To order or for more information, please contact LAMPIRE Customer Service at 215.795.2838.
