Downstream Essentials: From Cell Harvest to Final Purification (Theory and Practical)

Overview

Downstream Essentials helps participants build practical understanding of the unit operations that are industry-standard across different product modalities in biopharmaceutical manufacturing. Through the combination of essential theory and hands-on training, participants develop a stronger understanding of filtration, chromatography, and related downstream workflows.

What participants will learn

• Gain hands-on exposure to depth filtration, tangential flow filtration, virus clearance, and chromatography operations

   

• Understand how downstream unit operations connect across the purification workflow

   

• Identify common causes of yield loss such as leaks, fouling, and chromatography breakthrough

   

• Start developing practical troubleshooting skills

   

• Build confidence with the equipment and terminology used in modern downstream manufacturing

Ideal audience

Ideal for technicians, scientists, process developers, operators, engineers, supervisors, and QA professionals involved in downstream processing. 

Employer value

For employers, this course helps reduce the risk and cost of downstream learning curves by building capability in a structured, hands-on setting.
