GENiSYS® Lab: Tabletop Innovation for Aseptic Processing
AST’s GENiSYS Lab series offers automated, flexible aseptic processing (container filling, container closing, and vial sealing). These advanced systems were designed for laboratory settings and configured with a tabletop technology that leverages precise automation for critical points in aseptic operation. The GENiSYS Lab solutions lower overall risk and ensure the highest standards of product quality and data integrity from the very start of drug development. User-friendly operations, executed through a portable HMI, 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.

Drug developers frequently revisit the question of what ways are available to make laboratory drug processing more efficient and effective. Automation is one avenue that continues to grow in application and potential for drug discovery and development. Though benchtop operations are vital to the drug development journey, many laboratory settings still use primarily manual methods. Automated solutions address and correct the inefficiencies and obstacles associated with a manual-only approach, including human errors, contamination risks, and incomplete data.

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.
