In Memory of Dr. William J. Rutter (1927–2025)

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Dr. William J. Rutter—a visionary scientist, mentor, entrepreneur, and close friend to many at InVitria. He passed away on July 11, 2025, at the age of 97. Few scientists have shaped modern biotechnology as deeply as Dr. Rutter. His research laid the groundwork for recombinant insulin, genetically …

ITS-Animal-Free™ Supplementation for iPSC Expansion and Pluripotency: A Platform Approach for Serum-Free Cell Expansion

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ITS Animal-Free™ , InVitria’s 100x cocktail of Insulin, Transferrin, and Selenium that is completely animal-origin-free, is essential for culture of all mammalian cell types including iPSCs. ITS AF can be conveniently supplemented into custom media formulations to replace the core components of serum. This reduces variability, eliminates safety and regulatory hurdles, and allows …

Safe, Consistent Iron Delivery in Serum-Free Systems with Optiferrin® Recombinant Transferrin

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Efficient iron delivery is essential for cell growth and viability in vitro. Transferrin is widely used in cell culture media to fulfill this role. However, serum-derived transferrin poses challenges including batch variability, pathogen transmission risk, and regulatory complexity. InVitria’s Optiferrin is a recombinant human transferrin produced in a non-mammalian expression system that overcomes …

Why Border Disruptions Threaten Blood-Derived Raw Materials—and What Biomanufacturers Can Do About It

Reading time: 4 minutes What happens when your biologics pipeline depends on the reliability of an international border? For many manufacturers still using plasma-derived components like albumin or transferrin, that’s not a hypothetical. It’s baked into their supply chain. Across the U.S.–Mexico border, more than 50 plasma centers depend on daily crossings from Mexican nationals …

Low-DMSO Cryopreservation of MSCs with Optibumin 25 Recombinant Albumin

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This application note demonstrates the use of Optibumin® 25—an animal-origin-free recombinant HSA—for low-DMSO cryopreservation of UC-MSCs. Optibumin matched or outperformed blood-derived HSA, even at DMSO levels as low as 1%, supporting safer, regulatory-friendly workflows for cell therapy manufacturing. Key Highlights Maintains MSC viability at 1–2.5% DMSO Reduces apoptosis vs. no-albumin controls Performs comparably …
