Culture Biosciences wants to create larger bioreactors so customers can test bigger batches of microbes.

Culture Biosciences, which helps synthetic biology firms scale up production of microbes, has raised $80 million in series B financing to help meet increasing demand. The company, which was one of C&EN’s 10 Start-Ups to Watch last year, will use the new funding to add 5 L and 250 L bioreactors that customers can control virtually. The funding will help Culture Biosciences support customers that want to test larger quantities of microbes or seek regulatory approval.
