ÄKTA ready and ReadyToProcess columns
are part of the ReadyToProcess platform,
consisting of plug-and-play, ready-touse
solutions for entire chromatography
processes.
ÄKTA ready is a fully automated liquid
chromatography system for process
scale-up and production of materials
for clinical trials. The system operates
with ready to-use, disposable flow paths
that are available in High and Low Flow
Kits. The need for cleaning between
products/batches is eliminated and no
development or validation of cleaning
procedures is required.
Highlights of ÄKTA ready systems include:
• Simple exchange of the complete flow
path removes the need for system
cleaning
• Improved economy and productivity
due to simpler procedures
• Single-use eliminates risk of crosscontamination
between products/
batches
• Scalable processes using UNICORN
ReadyToProcess columns are designed
for seamless scalability, delivering the
same performance level as available in
conventional processing columns such
as AxiChrom and BPG. ReadyToProcess
columns are designed for purification of
biopharmaceuticals for clinical phase I
and II studies. Depending on the scale
of operations, they can also be used for
full-scale manufacturing, as well as for
preclinical studies.
ReadyToProcess columns provide a range
of benefits including:
• Time savings – by eliminating several
time-consuming steps
• Cost savings – by lowering buffer
consumption and reducing cleaning
validation demands
• Process security – robust column
construction and performance
• Scalability – by facilitating conventional
approaches in larger scales
• Reduced cross-contamination
