Virsa™ Raman analyser for PAT bioprocess monitoring
The Virsa Raman analyser now comes with dedicated optics for PAT implementation in biopharmaceutical production. Raman spectroscopy is a fast and non-invasive optical spectroscopy technique for chemical analysis. In both upstream and downstream manufacturing, Raman spectroscopy can improve yield and save time by reducing the reliance on offline quality assurance techniques like high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).
Real-time chemical analysis for PAT
The US Food & Drug Administration (FDA)'s PAT framework for pharmaceutical manufacturers has initiated a shift towards principles of Quality by Design (QbD). These aim to achieve quality assurance throughout the manufacturing process. Real-time chemical analysis can help with understanding and controlling critical process parameters which affect a biopharmaceutical product's Critical Quality Attributes (CQAs).
Bioprocesses are inherently complex. Thus, it is incredibly challenging to achieve consistent titer or yield from multiple bioreactors. This uncertainty means that reactions are often excessively long and accompanied by an increase in costs. The Virsa Raman analyser can continuously monitor the concentration of metabolites in the bioreactor in accordance with PAT guidelines. You can easily control and terminate your bioprocess so that titer expression and bioprocessing yields are optimised, while saving on costs.

The Virsa analyser is customisable to meet your process analysis requirements. We would be pleased to demonstrate the Virsa analyser's capabilities using your samples.
Advantages of Raman Spectroscopy for bioprocessing
The Virsa Raman analyser enables non-destructive optical measurements of solids, liquids and suspensions/slurries. Raman spectroscopy can accurately measure the concentrations of aqueous cell culture media components such as glucose and lactate. Raman spectroscopy can also differentiate between different crystal structures (polymorphs). The chemistry and structure of multiple reactants, products and impurities in a culture medium can be analysed simultaneously.
Bioprocess monitoring for manufacturing
The Virsa analyser is designed for continuous inline monitoring of analyte and metabolite concentrations in real time. Continuous monitoring does not perturb the reaction, as Raman spectroscopy is non-destructive and does not interfere with living systems.
Renishaw's WiRE™ software includes the Monitor™ module which uses chemometric predictive models to help you understand your bioprocess. The Monitor module produces simple readouts and trends of the required process parameters in real time. Data is easily transferred to third-party applications for pass/fail criteria or feedback control loops.

Optimised scale up of bioprocessing with Raman spectroscopy
The Virsa analyser offers easy transfer of bioprocessing protocols, from laboratory-scale research to continuous inline process manufacturing with feedback control loop. Add the Virsa analyser to your fermentation or cell culture vessel for online quality assurance and real-time process control. The Virsa analyser is a compact, optical fibre-based spectrometer designed for remote process monitoring. It can use an immersion probe for in-situ Raman analysis of fluids in bioprocessing reactors, including through single-use bags or optical windows.
