OriGen Biomedical published a Technical Bulletin regarding the PermaLife product code changes in November 2017. The previous PermaLife bags came with a green vent cap which has now been eliminated from the “2G” PermaLife bags. More information regarding the rationale for the removal of the green vent cap can be found on the Technical Bulletin page under the title: November 2017 – PermaLife Green Vent Cap Removal.

Bags create a closed system that reduces possibility of contamination. Swabbable needle-free valves are provided that provide repeated sterile access (and prevent needle-sticks). Our cell culture bags have high optical transmission that allows for inspection of contents without risking contamination of the culture. The bags are gas permeable and provide high rates of oxygen transfer to cells under culture. Additionally, water permeability is very low, so water loss is negligible and humidifed incubators are not required.
