Abstract
A buffer management system includes a supply of concentrated buffer solution, an inline dilution skid having a manifold in fluid communication with the supply of concentrated buffer solution and a control unit configured to operate the dilution skid to selectively dilute the supply of concentrated buffer solution in the manifold with a source of water for injection (WFI), and a biocontainer assembly. The biocontainer assembly includes a biocontainer bag defining a storage volume and a fill level sensor configured to generate a fill level signal indicative of the amount of material within the storage volume of the biocontainer bag. The biocontainer bag is in fluid communication with the manifold of the dilution skid for storing diluted buffer solution therein. The fill level sensor communicates the fill level signal to the control unit of the dilution skis, which uses it to manage the operation of the dilution skid.
