RTx have transferred their manufacturing procedure to SNBTS and SNBTS are required to use the reagents/consumables specified by RTx within that process. Miltenyi were the chosen supplier of several goods for use within the trial by RTX, therefore SNBTS are required to procure these reagents from this supplier. The goods are for use with the Prodigy cell processor and subsequent downstream processing. The Prodigy does not accept reagents/consumables which are not compatible with the software, therefore the items from Miltenyi are the only suitable goods for use within the trial.
