Industry Need

  • The COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated the need for readily available mRNA vaccines that do not require ultra-cold storage. 

Solution

UMass, Sepragen and the University of Pennsylvania will create a continuous, automated, compact mRNA producing machine.  


To do this, the team will:  

  • Produce a mRNA purification device, inline UV sensor to feedback control and maintain set point concentrations.  
  • Build algorithms and control strategies that utilize biosensor signals in an algorithm for overall feedback control.  


Impacts

All these tasks at the conclusion of the project will be integrated to successfully produce continuous purification platform for Mab production.
