GENiSYS® Lab: Tabletop Innovation for Aseptic Processing
AST’s GENiSYS® Lab series offers automated, flexible aseptic processing (container filling, container closing, and vial sealing). The key advantage of these systems is that they were designed specifically for laboratory settings, configured with a tabletop technology that leverages precise automation for critical points in aseptic operation to lower overall risk and ensure the highest standards of product quality and data integrity from the very start of drug development. Each lab system is outfitted with an intuitive HMI on a portable tablet for centralized control of the operation, process parameters, and records. User-friendly operations utilize flexible recipe-driven production to meet the full scope of small-scale drug processing including research and development, process development and commercial production of highly targeted liquid pharmaceuticals. End-to-end process data collection is accurate, automated, and exportable. Additionally, each system can be upgraded with an Electronic Batch Record (EBR) system to provide 21 CFR Part 11 compliance.
As with all of AST’s solutions, each lab system is backed by a dedicated Customer Care team committed to the high performance of our equipment as long as it’s in the field.

A question drug developers frequently revisit is what ways are available to make laboratory drug processing more efficient and effects . Automation is one avenue that continues to grow in application and potential for drug discovery and development. As important benchtop operations are in drug development journey, many laboratory settings still use primarily manual methods. Automated solutions addressing address and correct the inefficiencies and obstacles associated with a manual-only approach, including human errors, contamination risks and incomplete data. Automated lab technology provides clear improvements and advancements in these areas and more and offer improved efficacy for the entire drug development lifecycle.

Meeting Industry Needs | Applications

Research and development is a critical undertaking for pharmaceutical manufacturers and is the backbone of the life sciences industry. Every lifesaving and life-improving treatment that has ever been produced started in a laboratory setting. Before a treatment can reach a patient in need, it’s in the laboratory that it’s discovered, refined, and then pushed forward to start its pre-clinical to commercial journey.
