The impact of single use technologies

Bioprocessing systems using single-use technologies (SUTs) which offer tremendous advantages to industry users. They are widely used in cell culture allowing for quick, economical, and scalable production. They are additionally used at every production stage—from buffer and media preparation through filling and shipment, and from small- to large-scale production, single-use systems can be adapted to virtually any process.

After several life cycle assessments (LCAs) of the environmental impact of SUTs, it has raised some concerns for their carbon footprint. Thermo Scientific's™ mission in its Green by design project, has investigated this to characterize the environmental impact of SUTs.
