Abstract

This disclosure relates to equipment utilized to manufacture chemical agents, particularly biopharmaceuticals. In some embodiments, reactor systems comprising a mobile carriage assembly; a disposable reaction container removably attached to the carriage assembly; and, a carriage holder into which the mobile carriage assembly may be removably inserted are provided.

Claims (16)

1 - 19 . (canceled)

20 . A method for carrying out a reaction, the method comprising combining the components of a reaction in a reaction vessel comprising:

a) a mobile carriage assembly holder comprising an interior into which a mobile carriage assembly may be removably inserted, the holder comprising:

i) a receiving implement comprising at least one wheel or track for receiving the mobile carriage assembly; and,

ii) a door for securing the mobile carriage assembly within the interior of the holder following insertion of the mobile carriage assembly into the holder;

b) a mobile carriage assembly comprising:

i) at least one primary mobility implement comprising at least one wheel or track for moving the mobile carriage assembly prior to insertion of the mobile carriage assembly into the holder;

ii) secondary mobility implements, each secondary mobility element comprising at least one wheel or track, wherein:

1) the secondary mobility implements are not in contact with the ground prior to or following insertion of the mobile carriage assembly into the holder;

2) at least one secondary mobility implement is proximal to the receiving implement and at least one secondary mobility implement is distal from the receiving implement prior to insertion of the mobile carriage assembly into the holder;

3) the secondary mobility implements provide for insertion of the mobile carriage assembly into the holder, and removal of the mobile carriage assembly from the holder, using the receiving implement of the holder; and,

iii) a shaft and impellar assembly; and,)

c) a disposable reaction container removably attached to the mobile carriage assembly that, when removably attached to the mobile carriage assembly:

1) comprises an interior chamber in which reaction components may be reacted with one another;

2) encloses the shaft and impellar assembly; and,

3) separates the reaction components from the external environment.
