Wave Biotech Base2050EH Rocking Motion Bioreactor with 50L Single-Use Bag and Flexible Control

The Wave Biotech Base2050EH is a benchtop rocking motion bioreactor engineered for advanced cell culture bioprocessing and small-scale protein production, widely used in biotechnology research, molecular diagnostics, and biopharmaceutical production pipelines. Optimized for disposable 50-liter cell culture bags, this system supports the cultivation of CHO cells and other mammalian cell lines critical in synthetic biology and gene editing workflows.

Key technical features include:

• Rocking speed adjustable from 2 to 40 RPM, allowing fine-tuned shear and mixing conditions essential for live-cell imaging and bioprocess optimization.
• Tilting angle range between 2° and 9°, enhancing oxygen transfer rates and nutrient distribution in suspension cultures.
• Integrated heating system with a controlled temperature range from 10°C above ambient to 50°C, enabling precise thermal conditions for sensitive cell lines.
• Compatibility with additional controller and monitor connections to facilitate real-time process monitoring and data acquisition in synthetic biology and biomanufacturing workflows.
• Low acoustic noise level (<70 dB A) contributes to a suitable laboratory environment.

The system operates on 120V/220V supply at 50Hz/60Hz frequency, weighing approximately 43.54 kg (96 lbs), with compact tray dimensions (28 x 24 inches) that optimize benchtop footprint. The disposable bag bioreactor design supports sterile, single-use bioprocessing necessary for reducing contamination risk in molecular cloning and cell therapy research.

This modular bioreactor system is essential for laboratories undertaking live-cell culture under controlled environmental conditions, enabling efficient scale-down process development for biopharmaceutical manufacturing and critical biotechnology applications. Although used, it powers on and passes basic functional checks, yet an error screen is detected on activation, warranting further inspection before deployment.

The Wave Biotech Base2050EH bioreactor is a reliable tool widely adopted in synthetic biology research, molecular diagnostics, and is critical for small-scale bioprocessing optimization and biomanufacturing tasks.
