908 Devices Debuts Data Analysis Visualization Tool

908 Devices Inc. has released to market a data analysis tool that provides a quick and effortless way to analyze and visualize the wealth of data generated by the REBEL at-line cell culture media analyzer. The tool is provided as an add-in for the JMP statistical analysis software package.
 
REBEL provides at-line measurement of amino acids, vitamins and other metabolites that are essential to cell growth and viability in the development of biotherapeutics. Data from the REBEL is generated as a quantitative report. With the new add-in tool, process development scientists can easily visualize amino acid depletion or accumulation trends over the course of time within a bioreactor, leading to improved process understanding and facilitating adjustments to the media feed strategy.
 
“We’re excited to provide our REBEL users with a tool that helps them remove data analysis and visualization bottlenecks,” said Dr. Graziella Piras, senior director of Life Science Strategic Marketing at 908 Devices. “The ability to measure samples in near real-time and to quickly visualize the data provides our biopharmaceutical customers with actionable information to accelerate their development process.”
 
Existing REBEL users with access to the JMP statistical software package can download the add-in tool from the 908 Devices customer support portal. 
 
REBEL is a first-of-its-kind fresh and spent media analyzer that enables biopharma researchers to accelerate process development cycles and maximize bioreactor utilization by running media analysis at-line. Key benefits include:

• Minimal sample preparation and tiny volume requirements
• Real-time data tracking – quantitate more than 30 key media nutrients in less than 10 minutes
• A versatile design valued by users across many applications
