Rethink supplementation with BD Recharge.^TM

Next generation supplement delivers higher consistency, better yield and lower risk.

BD Recharge is the first in a line of next generation, chemically defined (CD), animal free supplements for the manufacture of biopharmaceuticals, that can help you boost performance, reduce risk, and increase consistency. It is recommended for CHO cell lines that are responsive to yeast based supplements.

Easy to implement in your process.

The transition from peptone supplements to BD Recharge CD supplement is a straightforward process. Because BD Recharge was designed to emulate yeast peptones, biopharmaceutical manufacturers can utilize it as a direct substitute with little to no adaptation required.

Testing has found BD Recharge to be effective with multiple base media, including customer-developed in-house media. BD Recharge is compatible with both batch and fed batch processes.

As a chemically defined, animal free, protein free supplement, BD Recharge is ultimately expected to reduce customers’ regulatory burden. BD Biosciences’ regulatory support is available to help support customers in their filing process and by referencing the BD Recharge DMF (Drug Master File), approval is further streamlined.

BD Recharge

Chemically defined.
Animal free. Protein free.

BD Recharge was developed using CHO cell lines and is recommended for applications that are responsive to yeast-based supplements or peptones. BD Recharge eliminates unnecessary constituents to maximize cellular activation and protein production. The result is exceptional protein quality and yield comparable to peptone supplementation.

BD Recharge includes only the key bioactive and nutritional constituents of the yeast peptone. Since only essential components remain, there is no need to remove extraneous components later, reducing the burden of downstream purification.
