“A successful start! Membrane filters have become indispensable in the examination of viruses, bacteria, and bacteriophages. We owe this to Dr. Beling”. – Gertrud Keese, Operations Manager and Procurator of Sartorius Membrane Filter Company, 1952 In celebration of the upcoming International Women's Day, we spotlight Dr. Adelaide Beling. Her pioneering work in the 1950s laid the economic foundation for the filter business by introducing dry filters and the so-called membrane filter method, which streamlined bacteriological water quality testing. This innovation was crucial in post-war Germany, where rapid and effective water testing was essential to prevent diseases. Adelaide Beling's example beautifully illustrates the historical roots of Sartorius' mission, while highlighting the vital, yet often overlooked, role women have played early on in advancing science and technology.

Simplifying Plasmid DNA Production Plasmid DNA (pDNA) can be used as a vaccine itself as well as for the development of gene therapies or mRNA vaccines. However, its production is challenging. A critical step, alkaline cell lysis, uses an alkaline solution to break up cell walls and release pDNA. Filling a gap on the market, the Sartorius team in Slovenia developed a fully automated system for reliable and scalable alkaline lysis. The Alkalizator gives users precise control over the alkaline process, resulting in higher efficiency and quality of the pDNA. Dr. Matevž Korenč, Product Manager and member of the development team: "This optimization directly reduces the production costs, making the development of therapies for rare genetic diseases more attractive to biopharma companies – and treatments ultimately more affordable for patients."

🌍 Partnering for Better Health: Empowering Communities in East Africa 🌟 As part of its “Donations instead of Gifts” initiative, Sartorius is supporting the IMPACT project this year. Run by our long-term partner action medeor e.V., the project is dedicated to improving pharmaceutical knowledge and access to high-quality medicines in rural areas of Kenya, Tanzania, and Rwanda. In many regions of East Africa, a shortage of trained professionals limits the availability of safe and effective medicines. The IMPACT project tackles these issues by: ✅ Training 120 healthcare workers across 53 facilities. ✅ Enabling 9 master trainers to expand knowledge and skills throughout the region. With this, the project aims to ensure patients receive the right medicines in the right dosage at the right time and empower communities to manage treatments effectively on their own.
At Sartorius, we empower scientists and engineers to simplify and accelerate progress in lifescience and bioprocessing, enabling the development of new and better therapies and more affordable medicine. Together, let’s look back at the year 2024 and explore how Sartorius is part of the solution and how we drive innovation to create better health for more people: - Sartorius and TheWell Bioscience Partner to Enable More Accurate Predictions in Drug Discovery: https://sar.to/nhcrs - Sartorius Collaborates With Sanofi to Commercialize End-To-End Platform for Downstream Process Intensification: https://sar.to/uy74a - Overcoming Animal Testing with Advanced Cell Models: https://sar.to/z3qxk - Sartorius to Advance Drug Discovery and Manufacturing With AI in Collaboration With NVIDIA: https://sar.to/nu5xd - How Purification Experts Make Novel Drugs Safe for Use: https://sar.to/9jjm5
