Wave Biotech, now a part of GE Healthcare, is a research-based company that develops and manufactures innovative process equipment for the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry. Our focus is on developing disposable bioprocess equipment for operations traditionally requiring stainless-steel tanks and piping. Key products, such as the Wave Bioreactor, Wave Mixer, and Sterile Tube Fuser, feature disposable contact materials that eliminate cleaning and validation, thereby reducing costs in operations ranging from cell culture, media preparation, buffer dissolution, thawing process intermediates to patient-specific cell therapy in hospitals. These unique, patented, devices can be installed and commissioned rapidly, drastically reducing the time-to-market for biological products. Our equipment is in use with hundreds of companies worldwide, both for R&D, as well as commercial applications.

The global reach of GE Healthcare will allow the Wave Products group to grow aggressively, by actively introducing value added tools and support services to our customers. At Wave, we are committed to working with you and while we have changed our name, the people who serve you and the products you rely on in your everyday business remain the same. We would like to thank all of you for sharing in our vision and we look forward to continuing to serve you!

Wave Biotech was founded by Dr. Vijay Singh, a recognized authority on large-scale cell culture and fluid mixing. Dr. Singh is the author of many technical papers and the holder of several US patents. He has been involved with the design and operation of bioreactors since 1980. The concept of wave-induced agitation for fluid mixing and oxygenation in inflated plastic bags was pioneered by him in 1995 as a replacement for expensive and labor-intensive stirred tank bioreactors. This concept was developed into what is now known as the Wave Bioreactor, hundreds of which have been sold since their introduction in 1998. Technical innovations included the development of bags with internal filters (patents pending) for perfusion and the scale up to culture volumes over 500 liters. Spinoffs of the technology include Wave Mixers which provide non-invasive sterile mixing, Wave Warmers for thawing applications, and a host of instrumentation suitable for introduction into bags.
