Predicting blend time for full-scale biomanufacturing

M-Star, together with Bristol Myers Squibb, New Jersey Institute of Technology, and University of Massachusetts Lowell, used a CFD model based on the Lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) to predict the blend time to homogenize a Triton X-100 solution added during a typical full-scale commercial VI process. The results obtained in this study were used to support actual production at the biomanufacturing site.
