TisXell Regeneration System
Company Background…(1) QuinXell Technologies Pte Ltd was founded
in 2011
QuinXell is the latest addition to Quintech Life Sciences (QLS) family of companies established to tap into the emerging Life Science industry
QuinXell will focus in the area of Regenerative Medicine through its innovative cell culture-based technologies
Company Background…(2) Research on QuinXell’s TisXell Regeneration
System was initiated as a joint project between the National University of Singapore (NUS) and Singapore Polytechnic (SP), with the National University Hospital (NUH) providing samples for applications
Scientific papers supporting the benefits of biaxial bioreactor on functional tissue growth (tissue engineered constructs or TECs) on 3D scaffolds have been published in international journals for more than 10 years
Background Information…(1)
Regenerative Medicine has been hailed as a revolutionary medical advancement, breathing new life into patient care
Transplantation through in vitro cultures of organs and tissues or Tissue Engineering (TE) is a standardized and reproducible method to create functional tissues in the laboratory
These tissues are utilized to replace, repair or regenerate organs loss due to disease, trauma, failure or cogenital defects
Background Information …(2)
Traditionally, spinner flasks, rotating wall vessels (RWV), perfusion and uniaxial bioreactors are employed for TE
QuinXell’s unique TisXell Regeneration System offers an optimal condition for high growth and high proliferation of cell cultures compared to conventional methods.
TisXell controlled environment provides optimal nutrients and gases to growing cells and triggers cellular mechano-transduction signalling pathways to stimulate tissue remodelling onto a 3D scaffold.

• And many more…
Conventional MethodsTypes of Bioreactors Advantages Disadvantages
Spinner flasks Improved fluid flow (as compared to static vessels)
Turbulence generated can be detrimental for seeded cells and newly laid down ECM
Perfusion bioreactors Enhances mesenchymal stem cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation in scaffold constructs
Non-homgenous cellular distributionCells at frontal zones are washed away by the oncoming perfusion flow with higher flow rates
Rotating wall vessel (RWV) bioreactors
Low sheer forces and 3D high mass transfer (similar to perfusion bioreactors)
Non-homogenous cellular distribution and ECM depositionIn the free floating culture, collision between scaffolds and bioreactor walls may induce cellular damage and disrupt cellular attachment and matrix deposition on the scaffolds
TisXell Novel ApproachTypes of Bioreactors Advantages
Biaxial revolving bioreactore.g. TisXell
Integrated perfusion system allows for exchange between the vessel and reservoir with maximal mass transfer under low sheer force
Biaxial revolution of the culture vessel led to more homogenous cellular and ECM deposition – at the surface and the deeper core of the scaffolds
Cellular scaffolds were secured by pins to avoid scaffold and vessel wall collisions
TisXell Regeneration System
TisXell – Unique Selling Points…(1)
Patented biaxial revolution in two independent orthogonal axes (spin and tumble simultaneously)
Flexible operational modes available – biaxial, uniaxial, swing modes
TisXell – Unique Selling Points…(2)
Efficient fluid transport within the 3D scaffolds, allowing optimal nutrients and waste exchange to and from the cells, penetrating the deepest core of the scaffolds
Spherical design of vessel reduces drag and promotes uniform fluid mixing
TisXell – Key Benefits…(1)
Accelerates cell growth, differentiation and cell proliferation, mimicking native extracellular matrix (ECM)
Supports homogenous cell culture at the surface and core of the 3D scaffolds
Maintains functionality and viability of tissue constructs
TisXell – Key Benefits…(2)
Reduces formation of necrotic neotissue that interferes with subsequent implantation process
Promotes integration of implants with surrounding tissue and support the structural integrity in regeneration of tissues and/or organs
Key Benefits for Bone Applications…(1)
In Vitro Homogenous cellular distribution
Rapid stem cell expansion – up to 2-fold (or more) improvement in mass transfer in thicker grafts
High viability
Robust osteogenic differentiation and mineralization
Key Benefits for Bone Applications…(2)
In Vivo Increased bone formation after
transplantation
Promotes new vascularization
