If you don’t see what you need here, let’s talk. Many more technologies for research in space are in various stages of development by Techshot.

Analytical Containment Transfer Tool (ACT²)
Great for:

• Safe doubly-contained sample transfers to orbit, from orbit, and between equipment in space
• Freezable down to -80°C
• Standard Luer connector

Advanced Space Experiment Processor (ADSEP)

Great for:

• Cell culturing—includes the only space-based rotating wall bioreactor available
• Tissue engineering
• C. elegans research
• Macromolecular crystal growth
• Bacteria research
• Protein crystal growth
• Squid research
• Your research with ~ 2,300 – 3,000 cc of volume, an empty cassette could be your blank canvas for whatever is important to you. Multiple cassettes can be processed per mission.

3D BioFabrication Facility (BFF)

• BFF is a space-based biomanufacturing platform capable of printing with live human and animal cells.
• Contains a Z-tower with multiple print heads and a bioreactor on the X-Y print stage.
• Once printed, cells are matured into tissue in ADSEP.
