CellShot® Commercialization

From Platform Innovation to Commercial Readiness

2021–Present | Commercialization of Second-Generation CellShot

From 2021, Femtobiomed advanced CellShot® into a second-generation platform through the development of its proprietary Partitioned Flow Electroporation (PFEP™) technology. In 2024, the CellShot Badger System was successfully registered with the U.S. FDA as a Drug Master File (DMF), establishing CellShot as a cGMP-ready non-viral gene delivery platform. In 2025, the Proliva™ buffer system was integrated into the CellShot Platform to further improve post-electroporation viability and gene insertion efficiency for CRISPR-based gene editing, as well as to enable precise and reproducible multi-pDNA delivery across diverse applications, including AAV manufacturing. 2025 marks a true inflection point in commercialization, with PFEP™, Proliva™, and Cryo-integrated processes—supported by proprietary patents—positioning CellShot as a next-generation platform for scalable cell and gene therapy manufacturing.
